The answer

There is no objection to a woman working in a mixed environment with men out of necessity, provided she adheres to Islamic manners in her interactions with them, such as wearing the , avoiding (private seclusion), and refraining from shaking hands. Her speech with them should be limited to what is necessary, while she strives to find work in a female-only environment if possible.
