It is permissible for a woman to go out to work with certain conditions, including: adhering to the hijab, avoiding mixing with men or being in seclusion with a man who is a stranger to her. If she is not in need of work, then her staying in her home is better for her, more protective of her honor, and further removes her from the causes of temptation.
