It means that our Constitution prohibits discriminating people because they have a masculine or feminine identity, regardless of their biology; That is to say, explicitly recognizes that women, men, gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people (GLBT) have the same rights as any Ecuadorian to decent work and mutual respect at work. The current Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador, in Article 33, states that "Labor is a social right and duty, and an economic right, a source of personal fulfillment and the basis of the economy. The State shall guarantee to the workers the full respect for their dignity, a decent life, fair remuneration and remuneration and the performance of a healthy and freely chosen or accepted work. " For the above, it is necessary to mention that discrimination based on sexual inclination is still present in Ecuador despite the fact that today there are a series of laws and legislation that ensure equality at national and international levels, decades of activism, and resource programs To counteract it and to promote diversity. But the problem persists as people have a general acceptance of prejudices and stereotypes. Therefore, it is necessary to reform the Labor Code in terms of regulating and determining penalties for labor discrimination based on their sexual orientation and civil liability. |
