This is a descriptive and documentary research, using data from the Annual Social Information Relation - RAIS, of the Ministry of Labor and Employment - MTE, with the development of graphs and tables for comparisons between the data surveyed, being the analysis predominantly qualitative. Because there are no studies that gather this informations regarding Laranjeiras do Sul, this research was justified on the need to verify the participation of woman in the formal labor market, above all to view possible differences in the distribution of wages due to the gender of workers in the municipality. The results found showed that the female public still faces significant disadvantages in all aspects analyzed. The female participation in the municipality was greater than in the state and in the country, but being lower than the number of male links in the analyzed period. The permanence of women in the labor market was shorter than the male, because they come later and stopped working with less age. There was a high segmentation sectoral and occupational, with a certain female concentration in some specific areas of activities, and despite having a higher level of education and performing the same tasks, the female remuneration was considerably below the amount paid to men. From this, it is concluded that women should continue to seek their rights for equality in all aspects and this research hopes to contribute to the reduction of gender inequalities in the labor market in Laranjeiras do Sul, providing this set of information, making society aware that reducing or eliminating these differences, all would benefit, improving general well-being and enabling the population to visualize and act against possible situations that can be considered discriminatory, because they are not explained by productive attributions. For future studies it is suggested that they could cover other indicators, using more current data or differentiated tools that can broaden the view on this subject or develop initiatives that can soften and correct those situations that generate inequalities.
