Abstract: Women have increased their labor participation, which has inspired the approach of some theories and empirical studies that study wages, their determination and effects in terms of occupation, inequality for reasons of gender. The objective of this research is to review the theories and empirical studies that try to explain the unequal treatment women receive in the labor market. The main results indicate that women are victims of inequality in the labor market, even in the XXI century, which causes them to be relegated to lower- level occupations and less important than to be undervalued, these occupations are considered proper or "adequate" for that sex.
