It is intended to find learned cultural characteristics, related to genders, susceptible to transform learning for labor equity. By promoting equitable conditions at work, equitable gender participation is promoted in the automotive production sector, a job niche occupied by men. A verification instrument is applied for a descriptive qualitative research with the non-experimental method of interviews with five experts from the productive sector, to investigate on active workers in companies in the automotive sector. The results show different topics of gender learning such as: the behavior of women in jobs that were exclusive to men, investigating the relationships between power and authority regarding gender roles, skills and behavior patterns; mixed work teams; gender role learning: practical advice to be competitive; empower in informal education; strategies for the change of paradigms to obtain labor and political power; attributes of learned roles; differences between power and authority and leadership attributes to empower women, in equality with men. The verification instrument includes types of power, to identify informal keys to empowering women in the labor market and thus access decision-making positions.
