Los servicios complementarios como mecanismos de simulación de la intermediación laboral.

Abstract

It is important to emphasize that labor intermediation was eradicated in our country through the enactment of Mandato Constituyente No. 8, which was approved in Montecristi by the Asamblea Constituyente in the year 2008, with the purpose of eliminating any form of labor precarization in the country. Labor intermediation is the practice of hiring workers with the aim of making them available to other companies or third parties. Despite the fact that our legislation implicitly prohibits labor intermediation and outsourcing, the practice still persists in some employers who hire their employees simulating they provide complementary services. This issue has been a subject of debate in our country since the early 2000s, leading to protests and tensions in society. Given this, the continued covert practice of labor intermediation has raised concerns, prompting the need to address this issue as a research matter. The main objective of this research is to analyze the lack of effective implementation of Mandato Constituyente No. 8, proposing mechanisms to ensure proper enforcement of the provisions related to labor intermediation. This research represents an effort to restore the integrity of labor relations in Ecuador and to guarantee the protection of workers' rights, as originally established by law.
