This study focuses on the experiences of women wearing hijab in the Swedish labour market. Semi-structured interviews have been conducted with six veiled women who have managed to find their ways to the labour market in Sweden. The study shows that, although the hijab is an important part of a woman´s identity in terms of her religious belief and practice, it is still hard for a woman wearing hijab to be accepted in the Swedish labour market and the Swedish society as a whole. This type of prejudice leads to discrimination and prejudice and deteriorating psychosocial work environments for veiled women. Postcolonial and intersectional perspectives which have been used at the macro level constitute the main theoretical approaches in the study. The analysis has produced results which show that discrimination against veiled women is very extensive in the Swedish labour market and in the Swedish working life. It has also become apparent in the study that veiled women have minimal trust in the labor market due to their experiences of discrimination. A side outcome of the study is the veiled women’s feelings of not being welcomed by feminist groups in Swedish society. Based on the analysis, it has also emerged that women who wear headscarves in our interviews do not feel welcome in feminist groups because of the hijab.
