Las trabajadoras sexuales en los centros de tolerancia del Cantón Ambato y la vulneración de los derechos laborales

Abstract

The present research work is an analytical study on the labor rights that sex workers have within the tolerance centers in the city of Ambato since this lifestyle is not recognized as a profession, occupation or trade in any Ecuadorian labor legislation. To legislate their rights in the legal field, the labor classification of this modus vivendi is necessary. It is the jurists and the States who have to define these labels in all countries, and the citizens have a duty to accept and respect these people in the free development of their personality and in the exercise of their sexual rights without regard to personal opinions and tags In Ecuador the situation of people engaged in prostitution is still a gray area, which is difficult to understand and to treat in its entirety. There are few studies that speak of the number and conditions of sex workers in the country and few programs dedicated to serving them. Without data there is no serious policy. This lack of information and attention translates into the invisibility of large sectors of this population whose rights are systematically violated and who do not have the tools to defend themselves and denounce these violations.
