Abstract

The Organic Law of Humanitarian Support, published in the Official Registry, Supplement 229, dated June 22, 2020, among other stipulations, instituted measures to face the consequences derived from the health crisis caused by the coronavirus or also called, covid-19. Within this regulation, specifically in its article 19, the figure of the Special Emerging Labor Contract is created, a new type of contract that is added to those already existing in the Ecuadorian Labor Code. Its purpose was to reactivate the economy, improve production in the country and guarantee employment, recognizing rights for both workers and employers. The general objective is to critically review the legal figure of the special emerging labor contract, in order to assess whether said contractual figure has fulfilled the purpose for which it has been created. Points such as the origin and need for the special emerging contract were analyzed; its characteristics, its violation of the principle of job stability and its advantages and disadvantages. A qualitative approach has been applied with scientific methods such as historical-logical, analytical and inductive, and this work was concluded, establishing the advantages and disadvantages of this new contractual modality in labor matters.
