Estabilidad laboral de las personas contratadas en proyectos de inversión utilizadas para cubrir necesidades institucionales permanentes en el sector público

Abstract

In this research project, the problem that revolves around investment projects as a means to promote labor precariousness by maintaining occasional employees while satisfying permanent institutional needs was exposed; it is, for this reason, the objective of the project was to determine those activities that the institutions should carry out to avoid the violation of rights and allow the consolidation of labor stability. Therefore, to arrive at a conclusion, the qualitative method was used, through the collection of information from different types of bibliographic sources, the particularities of occasional service contracts, those linked to investment projects, as well as the right to labor stability and its violations, were analyzed. Finally, the interview technique was used with one of the occasional employees linked to an investment project at Azuay’s District Office of the Ministry of Agriculture and Cattle raising. As a result, the violation of the job stability of occasional servers is related to the fact that they continue satisfying a need that is already considered permanent because the time represented by temporary employment has elapsed without the need being consolidated. In this case, the institution considers that since they are linked to an investment project, they are not covered by the corresponding law, thus failing to comply with its obligation to verify that the need has become permanent and consequently extending their contracts and calling for the respective merit and opposition contests.
