This research examines the invisibilization of women’s labour in the publishing sector. As a direct manifestation of gender-based inequality, this issue emerges as a complex phenomenon shaped by economic disparities and cultural codes. The theoretical framework for this research is based on Nancy Fraser’s three-dimensional approach to justice. Using document analysis as a qualitative method, the research analysed interviews published after the year 2000 across various platforms with women in the publishing industry who were involved in text production and processing. The findings reveal gendered expectations imposed on women’s labour and demonstrate that, even in a sector where women are numerically dominant, their work is regarded as ‘complementary’. It concludes that the invisibilization of women’s labour in this sector manifests not only economically and culturally but also as a representation issue. The diverse findings highlight the multidimensional nature of the problem and affirm the appropriateness of Fraser’s conceptual frameworks as a foundation for the research. Furthermore, the research findings revealed a cyclical relationship, which sometimes indicates a direct causal relationship and other times a mutual influence. These connections indicate that the findings are not coincidental but reflect a comprehensive structural integrity.
