What we must avoid is that this debate is liquefied and emptied of content by entering the football logic of the crack. But in light of events, so far neither one side nor the other seems to have the intention of dealing responsibly with a crucial issue for our future.
Let’s go back to the concept. A worker is a person who makes his physical or intellectual strength available in some productive process for a similar person, another person who directs or organizes said process. These two parts are two sides of the same coin called Work. As such, it must be cared for, encouraged, trained and protected so that both participate in a prosperous productive and economic development for our country.
In any of the cases, nobody disputes that everything related to the world of work is essential, since it is a tool for social inclusion and survival. Now, the task we have to reflect on how the conception of work has evolved is unavoidable in order to understand and know the present and anticipate the future of work.
May 1 is workers’ day, and workers must be focused on the fact that we are workers and contribute our time for individual and social development. Therefore, as soon as possible labor standards have to adapt to these changes, since, otherwise, they become obsolete, generating deep legal gaps. The world changes, work changes, workers change, It will be important that labor regulations also change, of course, always respecting the essential principles of labor law, taking care of the worker and the employer at the same time.
In conclusion, the specialists in Labor and Employment analyze unemployment and the stagnation of production that is characterized by low levels of education and training in human capital and the setback that labor laws produce in labor relations.
A legal framework favorable to job creation can stimulate economic growth, regulations that favor training, education and the formation of human capital, which leads to prosperous and efficient wages whose only consequence is to boost productivity.
Without a doubt, one is needed labour reform, or let’s call it an update of labor laws, but in case there is someone clueless, I clarify that I am not referring to a reform dictated by the IMF. It must be the product of parliamentary work based on both national and international experience and the knowledge of specialists in the field.
Let us hope that the entire political leadership rises to the occasion and the necessary agreements are reached to advance along the path that our country needs.
