Libertad de contratación de residentes permanentes de las Islas Galápagos.

Abstract

The Galapagos Islands are politically and financially administered by the Governing Council. This entity has its own legal economic resources, with administrative and financial autonomy. Also, it has the obligation to comply with and enforce the Organic Law of the Special Regime of the province of Galapagos (LOREG). The archipelago is considered a Special Regime for reasons of conservation and environmental characteristics, which is why the LOREG of the province of Galapagos controls that all of the activities respect the principles of conservation of the nature. One of the principles under which the LOREG is governed, is the preferential access of permanent residents. This principle refers to the fact that people under this condition have to be considered in a preferential way for the hiring in the job of private sector entities. The aim of this work seeks to determine the existence of the violation of the right to freedom of contract of permanent residents of the Galapagos Islands, to access specialized technical and / or labor services from outside the islands of an Ecuadorian citizen.
