Legalidad laboral en las fábricas de calzado mipymes en la ciudad de Bucaramanga

Abstract

The History of the footwear industry in Colombia has stood out for its quality, favoring the economy and the national society, managing to compete in international markets. However, there are internal and external risks that affect the survival of these factories such as unfair competition, smuggling, tax burdens and high production costs, which cause manufacturers to seek inadequate solutions to improve profits in a market in which must be produced with quality and competitive prices. One of these inappropriate practices is the hiring of labor below the legal minimum value that leads to unequal conditions and unfair to the worker. Disregarding these labor rights through figures outside the law may result in burdensome employer sanctions detrimental to the assets of the company or its partners. This project seeks to identify the impact on compliance of the labor legality in the MY SMES footwear factories in the city of Bucaramanga, which allows to know the conditions of hiring in the workers and the possible sanctions that apply according to the Colombian norm.
