The role of international labour standards in the area of labour law in a globalized world

2021 , Pangol Lascano, Alberto

The purpose of this research is framed in interpreting the international context of International Labour Standards (ILS) within a globalized world and its influence on the area of labour law. The methodology used was basic-legal research, of a herme-neutic-deductive type within the framework of the qualitative-interpretative paradigm of the social sciences. Several countries have been committed to respond to these challenges, with a multidimensional approach that responds to a social agenda, which requires changes in economic, social and environmental policies within the framework of the United Nations and its Sustainable Development Goals. In conclusion, world globalization has brought about the emergence of financial flows, a growing integration of markets, and the foundation of the International Labour Organization (ILO), which through its ILS inclu-des fundamental principles and labour rights that are considered instrumental conditions in improving the living standards of society. The solution to many pressing problems require having both medium and long-term projects that promote gender equality, decent working conditions, and protection of the environment. © 2021, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.

2023 , Espinosa Pinos, Carlos Alberto , Acuña-Mayorga J.M. , Acosta-Pérez P.B. , Lara-Álvarez P.

The article introduces ordinal logistic regression as an alternative method for modelling the relationship between predictor variables and job satisfaction. It emphasizes the importance of comprehending job satisfaction factors to enhance organizational performance. The study employs a quantitative approach to predict job satisfaction levels among operational staff in the textile industry, using a test devised by Sonia Palma, consisting of 7 dimensions and 36 items for job satisfaction assessment. Additionally, a 50-items test measures the work climate. By applying a logistic model, the study categorizes job satisfaction into "low - medium"or "high"levels. The dataset encompasses socio-demographic variables and questions from the work climate test CL-SPC (Work Climate - Satisfaction, Productivity and Commitment), which includes five dimensions. Significant factors for the logistic regression model are identified through exploratory factor analysis. These include commitment, autonomy at work, leadership, interpersonal relationships, learning and personal development, clarity of job expectations, motivation, and performance. The analysis unveils associations between these factors and the likelihood of predicting job satisfaction levels. Motivation, job performance and clarity of job expectations emerge as influential predictors. The article recommends fostering a culture of commitment, empowering decision-making, and clearly defining job responsibilities to improve job satisfaction in the textile industry. In conclusion, ordinal logistic regression analysis deepens our understanding of job satisfaction factors in the textile industry, enabling organizations to implement strategies to increase job satisfaction and overall performance. The results of the study enrich our knowledge of job satisfaction and work climate in the textile industry, offering practical guidance to professionals responsible for talent management. © 2023 IEEE.

In this re-search, a qualitative approach is followed, with the application of scientific methods such as the inductive-analytical, which allowed to show that, the termination, allows the termination of an employment relationship due to breach of the employment contract, for which purpose the law enumerates several grounds to which any of the parties involved in the labor relationship can resort, without having more consequences than the termination of said contract. In conclusion, it is a totally new legal figure for Ecuadorian legislation, but it provides a different vision to finalize an employment contract and that is not far from the grounds established in the Ecuadorian Labor Code, but that, without a doubt, offers a different modality to avoid cumber-some procedures within labor relations. © 2022, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.
