We study the volume of compact Riemannian manifolds which are Einstein with respect to a metric connection with (parallel) skew\--tor\-sion. We provide a result for the sign of the first variation of the volume in terms of the corresponding scalar curvature. This generalizes a result of M.~Ville \cite {Vil} related with the first variation of the volume on a compact Einstein manifold.
