Over the years, various scientific studies have highlighted inequalities. There are several factors that do not allow women to develop their career 100%. It must be borne in mind that this is invisible, since no regulations provide for any way of limiting the professional growth of women. This is a very common phenomenon in labor practice in our country. These invisible barriers are not going to disappear because they generate disadvantages. The current Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador specifies in article 11 the principles of equality and non-discrimination in all areas in recruitment, recruitment and promotion processes; Prohibition of harassment and discrimination at work for reproductive roles.
