Abstract

labor as an influential and sensitive segment of Iranian social structure, have faced numerous contradictions and conflicts. These contradictions also existed during the Second Pahlavi period. The question of this research is what are the social factors affecting labor contradictions and tensions during the Second Pahlavi period? This study has been conducted with a historical analysis approach. research articles related to the situation of labor during this period have also been used as other sources. The results show that although the policies of the Second Pahlavi period were relatively focused on improving the welfare of labor and their social security, wage inequality, unbalanced distribution of labor relative to income, and unequal access to welfare services still existed. The government's policy towards industrial labor was a combination of incentives and repression; on the one hand, there was the enactment of labor laws, improved working conditions, the development of health insurance, and limited labor participation in the shares of industrial factories; on the other hand, the formation of government unions (yellow) and SAVAK surveillance of labor prevented the full realization of their rights. In cases where the dispute resolution process failed, security measures were taken, including dismissals, repression, and arrests of labor.
