Women who are battered in the family or by intimate
partner may experience syndrome as a result of the abuse
they are exposed to. This syndrome has been expressed as
the battered woman syndrome. While the battered
woman syndrome negatively affects the daily lives of
women; it can also have negative consequences in
business life for working women. Situations such as a
female employee's inability to focus on her job, decrease
in performance, inability to reveal her full potential, and
often absence can emerge as a result of battered woman
syndrome. From this point of view, it is understood that
violence against women is a problem that also affects
business life. This situation can be presented as evidence
for the argument that women will be unsuccessful in
working life, especially in societies with gender-based
role distribution. However, if it is revealed that the
performance of the female employee in the workplace is
caused by the violence she is exposed to, it will be
possible to prevent such misjudgments.
In this study, battered woman syndrome, which is based
on sociological and legal foundations, is discussed in
terms of business life. Herein the aim is to draw a
conceptual framework regarding the battered woman
syndrome and to give information about its reflections in
business life. In addition, some suggestions were made
in the study for managers to take precautions for battered
woman syndrome.

Aile içinde veya yakın bir partneri tarafından hırpalanan
kadınlar maruz kaldıkları kötü muamele sonucunda
sendrom yaşayabilmektedir. Bu sendrom hırpalanmış
kadın sendromu olarak ifade edilmiştir. Hırpalanmış
kadın sendromu kadınların günlük yaşamlarını olumsuz
yönde etkilemekte, bir işyerinde çalışan kadınlarda ise iş
yaşamında da olumsuz sonuçlar doğurabilmektedir. Bir
kadın çalışanın işine odaklanamaması, performansının
düşmesi, potansiyelini tam olarak ortaya çıkartamaması,
işyerinden sık sık izin alması gibi durumların yaşanması
hırpalanmış kadın sendromu sonucu
gerçekleşebilmektedir. Bu açıdan bakıldığında kadına
yönelik şiddetin iş yaşamını da etkileyen bir sorun
olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Bu durum özellikle toplumsal
cinsiyete dayalı rol dağılımının olduğu toplumlarda
kadınların çalışma yaşamında başarısız olacağı
argümanına kanıt olarak sunulabilmektedir. Oysaki
kadın çalışanın işyerindeki performansının maruz
kaldığı şiddet kaynaklı olduğu ortaya konulduğu
takdirde bu tür yanlış yargıların da önüne geçmek
mümkün olabilecektir.
Bu çalışmada sosyolojik ve hukuki temellere dayanan
hırpalanmış kadın sendromu iş yaşamı açısından ele
alınmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı hırpalanmış kadın
sendromuna ilişkin kavramsal bir çerçeve çizerek iş
yaşamındaki yansımalarına dair bilgi vermektir.
Çalışmada ayrıca hırpalanan kadın çalışanlar için kurum
yöneticilerinin alabileceği tedbirlere yönelik bazı
önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
