"This article investigates the gender differences in the tasks performed at the workplace using individual-level data representative of the French working population. In particular, we are interested in exploring gender gaps in power and control. Our findings reveal that, within the same job, women tend on average to be subjected to more forms of control than men even controlling for a wide set of supply-side characteristics, such as education, age and seniority. Moreover, these gender differences often exacerbate within male-dominated jobs, although they do not necessarily disappear as the share of women increases. We conclude that, within the same job, in the French labour market women tend to be in a more subordinated position compared with men."
