PERCEPCIÓN DE LA DESVINCULACIÓN LABORAL EN LOS EX SERVIDORES DEL MINISTERIO DE TRANSPORTE Y OBRAS PÚBLICAS (QUITO) PERIODO 2012-2014.

Abstract

The present research work presents an analysis on voluntary and involuntary labour termination process, its causes and effects in ex- workers from the Ministerio de Transporte y Obras Públicas del Ecuador MTOP in Ecuador during a two year period 2012-2014. This study has the aim of identifying the possible consequences in ex-workers’ performance, lifestyle and welfare produced by the termination process during the time period mentioned before. In order to build up the literature review of this work, a bibliographic base on: labour conditions, labour laws, public termination laws and regulations, voluntary and involuntary labour separation was considered. Furthermore, an objective survey was developed and applied to a group of ex-workers from MTOP; with these two elements the investigation was carried out. To conclude, there is evidence that the termination process at MTOP during 2012-2014, either voluntary or as a dismissal, was not totally suitable due to the lack of support measures or lack of outplacement assistance offered to ex- workers during the termination process.
