Abstract

In the period of 1963-1974, almost all Turkish workers from Turkey, who had permit to work in Belgium, were male. Within the above mentioned period, official records show that only 33 out of 15.864 workers were females. Recently, the male/female distribution of Turkish population in Belgium has become, almost, equal, this is not only because of family unification but also because of workers’ choice of getting married with Turkish women living in Turkey. In this study, the Turkish women’s, who had migrated to Belgium, for different reasons, status in the social occupational life of the country where they decided to settle down, whether they were employed or not, and the reasons of problems they faced with when they tried to find a job are going to be shown, with the help of research data collected as part of an other research that I conducted in Belgium within the years 2007-2008.

Özet

Türkiye’den Belçika’ya 1963-1974 yılları arasında gönderilen Türk işçilerinin tamamına yakını erkeklerden oluşmaktaydı. Söz konusu tarihler arasında resmi yollarla gönderilen 15.864 işçinin sadece 33 tanesi kadındı. Günümüze gelinen süreçte ise gerek aile birleşimleri gerekse evliliklerin büyük bir bölümünün Türkiye’den gerçekleştirilmiş olması nedeniyle Belçika’daki Türk nüfusunun cinsiyet dağılımı neredeyse eşit hale gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada Belçika’ya farklı nedenlerle gitmiş olan Türk kadınlarının yaşamaya karar verdikleri ülkenin sosyal iş yaşamındaki konumları, çalışıp-çalışmama durumları, iş bulmadaki sıkıntılarının nedenleri 2007-2008 yıllarında Belçika’da gerçekleştirdiğim araştırmanın verileri çerçevesinde ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.
