ABSTRACT In addition to discrimination, the lack of respect for women's skills and the difficulty of women to get and achieve positions equal to or even higher than men in the world of work make many women tend to stay at home and refuse to enter the labor market. The purpose of this research is that women avoid the glass ceiling from a rational Burhani perspective in the contemporary era and not be studied only by textual studies. The research method used is descriptive analysis with Burhani epistemological syllogism, which is reviewed by literature from books, journals, and literature so that it uses a qualitative approach in the results. The results of the study state that the Glass ceiling phenomenon for women in the world of work is the influence of factors that still uphold patriarchy and only see it from the perspective of the text. In contrast to Burhani who uses reason . views that women also have the same rights and share in the work and position of women in the world of work according to their abilities. The implication of this research is leadership, a taboo subject, and even other positive things that are not found in the leadership or performance of men. So that there will be other women who become leaders in the era of modernization in various fields of work.

Introduction Economic development can be seen clearly with the increasing growth of existing job Even so, he is not able to reduce the gender inequality that occurs in the world of Gender inequality in the workforce remains a recurring problem. One of them is the glass ceiling, where women have access to lower positions in the labor market than men1. The World Economic Forum (WEF) has released the 2022 Global Gender Gap Report, examining 4 areas, namely economics, politics, education, and health. In the economic field. Indonesia is at a score 674 which is the global average2. Women with all their problems are always subordinated to men because the influence of culture, customs, and religion is so strong that it seems as if they bind women to the house3. So gender inequality in the world of work is a product of structural barriers that refer to social values, customs, and beliefs within the family, which is why masculine and feminine are born in a society that divides tasks and responsibilities between the two4. However, according to Muhammad Abduh, thinking rationally in Islamic teachings will lead to success through rational thinking, because faith will not be accepted without the use of the right mind and thinking critically and objectively5. Similarly, according to Ziba Mir Hosseini, text cannot speak, so understanding is needed to find the answer. Revelation does not reveal secrets through direct speech. Humans need to dig it and look for gems there6 Various terms regarding gender issues are circulating, one of which is the Glass Ceiling. Various studies on Glass Ceilings have been carried out, such as. First.

From the several studies above, it is known that Indonesian laws and regulations have attempted to create equal employment opportunities, but still undervalue skills and discriminate against women in the labor market. Regardless of what happened in almost every region of Indonesia, the glass ceiling is still a questionable tragedy, because people are not used to not adopting patriarchal understandings.

From various studies, it was found that the majority of Burhani's research was only studied from an educational perspective and also from the interpretation of verses or religion. There is still little discussion regarding the Burhani perspective on gender issues, especially the Glass Ceiling. Nurul Innayah Pratama and Bima Cinintya.

The purpose of this article is to find out how the Burhani epistemological framework can be used as a method of thinking that is suitable for the contemporary era, especially for the glass ceiling problem. And how can the glass ceiling be studied in a Burhani framework, not only by studying the texts' propositions? So that the problems of gender can also be resolved rationally. And society is increasingly open and unfettered by the patriarchal system. From this research, the researcher has an assumption about the glass ceiling in the perspective of Burhani's epistemology that the glass ceiling issue that often occurs can be due to society's understanding that is still rigid about patriarchy or understanding that is not broad and based on customs, culture and religion and a lack of critical thinking 17. Meanwhile, women can enter the world of work, even being able to have a high position as long as there is no discrimination when they are in a lower or higher position. The object of this research is the Glass Ceiling. In society, men and women are always assigned different gender roles. This is caused by several factors: the natural environment to the myths used to resolve gender differences. 18 so the term Glass Ceiling arose for women in the This research, seen from the perspective of Burhani's epistemology, is very important, due to the development of science. So that there is the progress of civilization for Muslims is not only based on the Bayani or Irfani method. Therefore, this research is qualitative. This research data collection method is library research. Sources of data obtained by obtaining the data requested by researchers19 from written information sources, or seeking nonhuman data and other sources of information that are stable and accurate20. Qualitative data is collected completely from primary data21 and secondary data22. The primary data source in this study is the Statistical Yearbook of Indonesia 2022, published by the Central Bureau of Statistics. This source is used because it is research on developments that have occurred in Indonesia over a long period until the latest data is in 2022. Secondary data sources in this study are books and Mohammad Anas. Rekonstruksi Epistemologi Ilmu Pengetahuan (Universitas Brawijaya Press, 2. Bq. Ari Yusrini.

From the data collected, this research was analyzed descriptively, namely analyzing the phenomena that are happening at this time with the process of collecting/editing data and interpreting data descriptively. Descriptive analysis can be reflective or comparative descriptive between certain cases/phenomena24. But with descriptive research tries to describe and interpret an object of research objectively. Therefore it is necessary to analyze data with all processes and processing to find meaningful information. In addition, researchers who have collected data need to examine the accuracy and thoroughness of the analysis by simplifying the data and drawing conclusions from it25. So that answers and conclusions can be found from some of the problems above regarding the glass ceiling phenomenon in women in the world of work with a detailed and clear Burhani epistemological perspective. Research Result Glass Ceiling on Women in the World of Work The term glass ceiling first appeared in the United States. She describes the condition of women in a place or work sector where it is difficult to get a position or position that is higher than before or from another as if women are restricted in their movements even though they have reached the top level26. The glass ceiling is a barrier that prevents women from having or rising to a higher position in a position or level in the world of work as if there is an invisible barrier for women to develop their mobility27. The glass ceiling is a discriminatory practice that prevents women and members of other minority groups from rising to executive-level job positions, one of the factors being work-family conflict, family support, mentors, and networks. And the main cause for women is work-family conflict. Spending a lot of time with family and household responsibilities can interfere with the career development of many women. Therefore. Samsu.

Work-family conflict is something to consider. Given that more and more companies are asking to understand that home life and work have changed, they are not two things that can be Work-family conflict occurs when a person's role at work interferes with his or her role in home life29. In addition, women's low education also contributes to discrimination in Where low education and skills make women experience difficulties and constraints in their work30. Based on observations from the data above31, it is known that the percentage of women in the labor force is 0. 653 of the total. The majority of women tend to fill employment related to education even though it only exceeds 1. 06 percent of the percentage of men. And it was found that many women were in charge of taking care of the house with a total of 36,726 944 a percentage of 9. 54 percent more than men. It is not easy to improve the quality of women in every aspect of life, with different backgrounds, different customs, cultures, religions, education. Wastuti. Pengaruh Work-Family Conflict.

It is also a problem that never brings a solution or significant change. Some scholars argue that this is due to the lack of Muslims exploring a science, which is only based on the Al-Qur'an and Hadith and based on previous studies that are textual . or Bayani in nature. So it has a big influence in responding to the challenges and developments of the times in the contemporary era. The figures argue that it is necessary to adhere to rationalism for the development of science. So that an epistemology based on reason was born, namely Burhani epistemology 33. One of them is AlJabiri34 which states that it is necessary for Muslims to optimally function Burhani epistemology to strengthen Bayani epistemology35. According to this epistemology, reason is capable of finding various knowledge, including religious disciplines such as good and bad issues36. Burhani's epistemology differs from other epistemologies in terms of creating knowledge based on proportions rather than text 37 and generating knowledge from logical principles in addition to previous knowledge that is assumed Nursyamsiah.

Where the ratio is a factor that affects knowledge, according to Immanuel Kant39 in Khudory's book, what seems unable to show its own identity, is human reason and reason that distinguish and determine between one and the other, so it is a ratio that determines the existence of empirical reality and not vice versa40. The function and role of reason in Burhani's epistemology are critical analysis tools41. To gain knowledge. Burhani's epistemology uses the rule of syllogism 42. A syllogism is a form of argument in which two propositions . are stated together in a way that must lead to a conclusion43. There are several stages before the syllogism, namely the stage of understanding . a'qula. This stage is the stage of abstracting external objects that enter the The inclusion stage is the stage of the process of forming sentences or propositions on existing premises. Propositions must contain a subject and a predicate and a relationship between the two. and the reasoning phase . At this stage, the decision-making process is based on the relationship between existing premises and this is where the syllogism occurs. Validity is part of the research that discusses the validity of knowledge or statements. According to al-Jabiri, the use of syllogisms to conclude must fulfill several conditions, namely: knowledge of the context in which the premises are prepared. there is logical coherence between reason and conclusion. The conclusions drawn must be certain and correct. Thus no other truth or certainty can be produced. 45 Strictly speaking, truth is closely related to something or the Baharun and Alawiyah.

This means that truth can be shown through the human rational adventure as a means to achieve it47 The diversity of frameworks that underlie humans, especially Muslims, cannot be separated from various epistemological variations that are influenced by the environment and So it is impossible to equate the mindset of all Muslims in one epistemology 48. The framework of thinking that is often used in the Arab world directly or indirectly emphasizes the authority of the text (Nas. This means understanding the text as complete knowledge and applying it directly without thinking: indirectly means understanding the text without interpretation and reasoning49. Therefore the need for an open attitude in taking science, to strengthen the other. This is expected to be the initial gate of Islamic progress in the development of science. So that all contemporary challenges can be answered rationally with or without eliminating perspectives from the past. Glass Ceiling in the World of Work in Burhani Epistemology Many efforts have been made to gain economic empowerment of women so that they are not left far behind by men, and so that women can be more involved in the world of work, namely gender equality can increase worker productivity so that the labor market is more Apart from these things, inequality occurs from the results of the community's perspective on the separation of task roles that are seen as more suitable for women51. Women's careers can also change from the glass ceiling effect with four factors. Women can show quality, professionalism, and a high sense of responsibility in the workplace. This increases the company's confidence in providing opportunities for women. , . individual expertise, . commitment to work, . support from the company and the opportunities that exist52. In addition to the four factors above, some steps can be taken to achieve gender equality in employment, namely prioritizing the implementation of laws related to gender equality in the Soleh.

To be able to seek protection and law enforcement for women workers, the government wants to increase cooperation with employers and monitor the implementation of applicable legal products53. Women's empowerment and the Ministry of Child Protection must also play a role in reducing gender inequality. The existence of a program with three objectives: ending violence against women and children, ending human trafficking, and ending economic inequality are various activities to eliminate and end obstacles to the realization of economic justice54. Women at the time of the Prophet were described as active, polite, and knowledgeable Even in the Qur'an, the ideal image of a woman is symbolized as someone independent in all areas of life. Not surprisingly, during the time of the Prophet Muhammad, some names emerged among women with brilliant intellectual and social achievements compared to men. Under the guarantee of the Qur'an, women can freely enter all areas of social life and can also take leadership positions in the world of work55 The effectiveness of leadership can be seen from the purity of the results achieved. Therefore, effectiveness is related to achieving goals and the results of actions. In a sense, productivity is a person's ability to do something with the right action and not just physical action but ratio56. If we go back to history, women's leadership has existed since the time of Prophet Sulaiman, from the story of the leader of the Saba nation named Ratu Balqis.

From the results of the above concept which is used as the main premise or theoretical basis, it is concluded that leadership cannot be separated from the individual ability . of a Many people associate leadership abilities only with biological aspects. The effectiveness of a leader depends on his ability to influence and direct his members rationally, not based on Discussion In general, there is debate about the origins of patriarchy which is rooted in two main theories: nature theory and nurture theory. According to the theory of nature 60. The psychological differences between men and women are caused by biological factors. Patriarchy is seen as the natural essence of the relationship between men and women according to traditional In contrast to the proponents of nurture theory who assume that patriarchy is formed from the structural processes of society. Nature refers to biological structures and processes while nurture refers to sociocultural influences so that the created patriarchy can also be abolished. There is also a socio-biological theory that assumes that men are superior to women due to biological and socio-cultural factors. The more complex the reproductive function, women are seen as a barrier to access to the public world, compared to men who have not experienced this The physical differences between men and women are very clear. Hormonal differences also affect aggressive levels. Women have menstrual cycles, breastfeeding, and hormonal changes in pregnancy seem to be characteristics of women. These physical differences have had a major impact on women's public lives61. Therefore, the role of women is less than that of men. society, men are politically dominant at all levels. Due to its unique biological factors, it has implications for the development of each sex and human behavior. All of this supports the conclusion that human biology is an important part of sex-dependent behavior. This sociobiological theory itself continues the patriarchal system62 Yulianti. Putra, and Takanjanji. Nature theory assumes that there are natural differences in roles for women and men, biologically different are the main factors in social roles that occur in society, so men are considered to have a more important role because they are considered stronger and limit women's movements so that there is a separation of functions and responsibilities between women and men.

Contrary to Burhani, gender role theory explains that gender forms a picture of how women and men behave in general and then influences people's views in the world of work. For example, men are considered more suitable to be leaders, intellectuals, and able to solve problems, and women are considered warm, kind, and more friendly and polite. Gender automatically activates the stereotypical expectation that men are better than women at Boys are considered to have higher values than girls even when they are children. So parents will pay more to make their children successful64. So much so that the division of labor also ends with different relations and statuses between men and women. This is seen in modern society. For example, in the business world, women are trained to be secretaries, and men are trained to be leaders. In science, women are laboratory engineers and men are Women have significant academic ability. From the civil servants, it was found that the women who were involved in it had a fairly good educational background. Especially in postsecondary education, women are more involved in education in college. Of course, this is data that proves that women can have roles in various fields of work66. Below is data on the education of female civil servants. Pratama and Cinintya. AuTantangan Dan Kesempatan Wanita Dalam Lingkungan KerjaAy. Hesti Inda Lestari.

Worldwide, women hold one in four senior leadership roles. but if we look at who runs the company, only 12% of the CEOs are women. Let's take a look at Silicon Valley . lot of companies are in the computer and semiconductor valle. , where women occupy only one in ten senior positions 67. Views In the concept of employment, the majority of women choose to work in the informal sector because they are considered flexible and do not leave their duties at home 68. Many companies choose not to hire women or only use certain fields. This is because women work less and take more time off. So that the stereotype states that women are more irrational and emotional so they are considered inappropriate to be appointed as leaders and have less important positions69. The majority of people in this country reject women's leadership, not because women cannot carry out their roles as leaders, but because of cultural factors. That is, the pillars of leadership are held and controlled by men. So much so that it gives rise to a hegemonic view of society, as if they always "trust" male leaders over female leaders70. Society assumes that men are 2017,https://w. com/watch?v=Yk1K1dHgXi4 BBC News. Yembise. Potret Ketimpangan Gender Dalam Ekonomi. Yembise. Djafri. AuEfektivitas Kepemimpinan Perempuan Dalam Karir.

So that men are politically dominant at all levels of work72 The following is a presentation on women's leadership, one of which is in the political field, which is quite low. The total participation of women in politics is estimated to be less than 50% of the participation of men. However, from year to year, this figure has gradually changed, and women have begun to take it in politics73. As Muslims. Allah SWT is the foundation of all essence and insight. But on the other hand, humans become actors who seek the truth, whereas humans are caliphs of Allah SWT who must fight on earth74. Caliphs are also not limited to women or men. All humans are caliphs and each must always strive in everything both in matters of work and leadership. Many women can become leaders with their abilities. like the story of Queen Balqis with all her abilities, can lead her people well and prosper the country. There was also Queen Sima who led the kingdom Mufid. AuGender Analysis in Contemporary Islamic Discourse: Integration of Metodology Approach. Ay Nursyamsiah.

Megawati was also able to become a female president of Indonesia75. It proves that women can also be successful leaders with their abilities. Along with the times, women can even fill important positions in various job positions and change the position of men in the world of work. What was once done by men is now done by women76. Objectively, it can also be seen that women have advantages in several ways, so companies must provide opportunities for women to lead so that they can remove the glass ceiling in the workplace77. Conclusion Glass ceiling often occurs especially for women who want to get promoted in a company or other high positions in the workplace. Judging from various data, women are always at the lowest level in a job. So this is unable to silence or stop the slogan of gender equality in the world of work. With a percentage that does not reach 50% in high positions, or in terms of a relatively slow percentage increase. From Burhani's analysis, women's performance is tidier than men, which is a positive value in work arrangements and even related to finance. In addition, many women are highly educated and broad-minded so they also have the right to be able to compete fairly in the world of work, even to compete for positions. So it is not taboo if women also play a role in labor. Therefore, it is necessary to have a logical review that women in this modern era are also able to enter the world of work and even occupy high positions for those who have the From this writing, researchers know that this focus cannot be studied in more detail, such as a description of the glass ceiling with more updated data or a narrower focus of study on leadership in certain fields. Likewise his research if using a perspective other than Burhani The researcher hopes that there will be a continuation of this unresolved issue in the future. Dini Safitri.
