Acesso em:.2674-5666https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/15223From the historical point of view, especially since the seventies with the occurrence of worldwide social movements around the world, the culture of society has also been changed. The female gender has gained more space in the labor market and, consequently, increasing its level of education, well-being and schooling. However, they still suffer from the inequality of wages and from being a minority in positions that require a greater degree of education. In these terms, the present article seeks to analyze why even with so many advances in the economic and social sphere this phenomenon persists in contemporary capitalism. In addition, this study analyzed the relevance of female participation in the labor market, especially its economic representation from the point of view of contemporary capitalism. For this work, the descriptive-exploratory method was used, using secondary IBGE data. It has been realized, therefore, that from a joint action between the State and organized civil society one can achieve positive results.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Gênero femininoMulheresMercado de trabalhoCapitalismoFemale genderWomenJob marketCapitalismArtigo de Periódico
