The aim of this paper is to analyze the intra-urban spatial distribution of employment in the agglomeration of Ile-de-France in 1978 and 1997. In that purpose, exploratory spatial data analysis is used in order to identify employment centers and a sectoral analysis of the CBD and the subcenters is performed. Our results highlight a suburbanization process of employment between 1978 and 1997 in Ile-de-France. A more polarized space emerges in 1997 compared to 1978 with several employment centers specialized in different activities. Moreover, even if the spatial influence of the CBD is diminishing during the study period, the CBD preserves its economic leadership by concentrating a large variety of high-order producer services. / Le but de cet article est d'analyser la distribution intra-urbaine de l'emploi dans l'agglomération de l'Ile-de-France en 1978 et en 1997. Dans ce but, nous effectuons premièrement une analyse exploratoire des données spatiales afin d'identifier les centres d'emplois et deuxièmement une étude sectorielle de l'emploi dans le CBD et les centres périphériques. Les résultats indiquent un processus de suburbanisation de l'emploi entre 1978 et 1997 en Ile-de-France. Un espace plus polarisé émerge en 1997 par rapport à 1978 avec l'apparition de différents centres d'emploi spécialisés. De plus, même si l'influence spatiale du CBD diminue sur la période, il conserve néanmoins sa suprématie économique en concentrant une grande variété de services supérieurs aux producteurs.
