This paper reports the perception of gender wage gaps in the business sector of Guayaquil. Qualitative methodology was used to discover the details that help explain the behavior of the study group. Relevant information was obtained from several companies in the city of Guayaquil, both small, medium and large. A structured interview was applied through GoogleForms®. As a result, it was found that today, the situation is different for women, since they can access academic training, which allows them to achieve an education according to their expectations; and, in the labor field, they hold high positions and even manage companies.
