Abstract

This article was prepared, after a previous work on the field of several companies of the industrial graphic sector, with the primary objective of evaluating the degree of satisfaction or accommodation to justice / injustice wage of a convenience sample with both genders and their future perspectives of salary justice. We decide to study the company that revealed greater gender homogeneity, thus ensuring balance both numerically: 37 subjects interviewed, including 18 women and 19 men, as well as relevant characteristics such as age, professional categories and academic  qualifications. In conclusion, women still receive lower wages compared to men, in the performance of the same functions and with a similar degree of productivity, corroborating previous studies.
