The purpose of this paper is to reveal contemporary characteristic of female works and roles in Iran by comprehensive perspective. Many Iranian women have been classified “non-labor force.” Because the term of “labor force” is defined as a person who is willing to work in labor market, however I have paid a great deal of attention not only to working women but also who are classified as the population non-labor force; for example student and housekeeper.
From previous research, I grasped that many Iranian women have taken part in social contribution activities; such as NGO, Kheirie, and various lessons. Accordingly, I focused social contribution activities of Iranian women in Tehran, and I investigated by interview mainly.
The findings of this investigation are as follows. Firstly, Islamic Views have some effect on invisible trading goods or services. Secondly, the environment for social activity has improved little by little in Iran, and public-awareness; about poverty issue, environmental issue, social welfare, child welfare and so on… has also increased. Then, both women classified as non-labor force and labor force are actively involved in social contribution activities. Actually, they have contributed to the advancement of life and culture through those activities.
