Based on a representative sample of Spanish employees from the Spanish Quality of Working Life Survey, pooled-sample data (2007¨C2010) are used to show that occupations with larger shares of women present lower prestige, controlling for a set of objective individual and work-related variables, and self-assessed indicators of working conditions. However, the results obtained do not support the devaluation theory since an inverted-U relationship between female share and occupational prestige is observed.
