Abstract
From a feminist perspective, this research delves deeply into the legal challenges and coping mechanisms related to gender discrimination in the workplace. Firstly, it highlights the shortcomings of existing laws and regulations in defining and addressing gender discrimination in the workplace. This is evident in the absence of clear guidelines for intricate issues like indirect discrimination and environmental discrimination, as well as the delayed responses to emerging forms of discrimination. Secondly, it emphasizes the importance of advocating the concept of gender equality from the perspective of system design. It proposes the necessity of reconstructing workplace culture to eliminate gender stereotypes and enhance women's professional abilities and awareness of rights protection. Finally, a countermeasure system for gender discrimination in the workplace is constructed, including strengthening and improving anti-discrimination laws and regulations, establishing an effective complaint and relief mechanism, and promoting the development of a culture of corporate social responsibility and gender equality. The research aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic solution to promote the legal construction and practice process of gender equality in the workplace in China.
