Secondary data were collected from studies related to women work in the hospitality sector, the gathered data were analyzed by using Logistic regression that could be binary logistic when the dependent variable takes the values of 0 and 1 (dummy variable) to make sure from the existence of the significant relationship between study variables and to identify the impact of following dimension of Job challenges, social challenges, Administrative challenges and demographic data on women work in the hotel sector. The descriptive statistics (frequencies) and means were used in order to calculate all variables.
