Structural functionalism is a framework for building a theory and sees the society as complex of parts that work together. In order to promote stability, this approach looks at the society thought micro orientation level.

Hence the stratification is required as it ensures that the people with the right abilities end up in the right positions.
Functionalism addresses the needs of the society namely norms customs and institutions.
