Abstract :
In the workforce, glass ceiling syndrome is a barrier that prevents someone from advancing their careers. It refers to what happened to women in the workforce who are prevented from rising in the hierarchy because of the long-standing assumptions that women aren?t as capable as the men and they could only work behind the scenes to support men. As a result, women would also receive unequal payment, disrespect from coworkers, and disregard for their opinion. One way to know how the occurrence of glass ceiling is by visual depiction of the barrier is through films. The film On the Basis of Sex tells the real life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the form of a biographical drama. The film would be analysed in order to understand the portrayal of glass ceiling syndrome in the workforce. The method that will be used is a qualitative method by collecting non-numerical data which in this research is scenes from the film and analysing it with Sara Mills? Critical Discourse Analysis and then, verified it with Simone de Beauvoir?s account of Marxist-Feminism. This result of this study revealed the syndrome as a result of traditional assumptions about gender which were put into the Constitution with capitalism as the system which caused discrimination between sexes that eventually caused the feminists to riot, and demand equality in the workforce for both genders.
