Abstract

Abstract The present article seeks to analyze empirically how the educational effect of women in higher education Law courses affects their insertion into the formal labor market. To achieve this goal, we used data from the Relação Anual de Informações Sociais [Annual Social Information Report] (RAIS) to analyze all occupational fields that require legal training. The data show that women were already the majority as court clerks and the like, and became the majority in private law from 2010 onwards. As for the income received, controlled by other variables, women tend to earn less than men in the same occupations, with higher incomes only among public prosecutors and lawyers.
