Employment Policies: Between the Employment Contract and Employment Relations

This research analyzes the employment contract and employment relationships and compares both figures with regard to informality, globalization, legal security and the economic cost of the job. These objectives are addressed through a descriptive-documentary research strategy based on the analytic method. The information is collected from four areas: constitutional, legal, doctrinal and hemerographic sources. As a collaborator in the employment relationship, the employment contract generates legal certainty and security for the worker because he knows the rules for providing services; for the employer, because it allows him to project himself into the economy; and for labor law, because it watches over the limits that make it special and characterize it. The study recommends categorizing employment contracts, which would permit having a greater number of service providers with humane working conditions, without forgetting that employers are included in the aforementioned rights.
