Análisis de la implementación de políticas de bienestar en una empresa del sector camaronero de la provincia del Guayas, durante el periodo 2024-2025.

Abstract

Despite numerous advances in national occupational safety regulations, few companies have effective programs designed to protect the health of their operational staff. The objective of this study was to analyze the implementation of wellness policies in a shrimp farming company in the province of Guayas during the 2024-2025 period, with the goal of proposing strategies to strengthen their application. A qualitative, descriptive and narrative study was used, in which two types of interviews were conducted with a total of 15 production workers. The results highlighted that workers identified communication, equality, and active leadership as key to effectively implementing wellness policies; the majority perceived that there were no obstacles to accessing benefits; and they recommend improvements in promotions, sick leave, lockers, transportation, and food to strengthen existing policies. It was concluded that the interviewed workers positively value the equity and accessibility of benefits and the positive work environment, although they identify limitations in the comprehensiveness and consistency of some policies.
