Labor rights of women in the digital context in Colombia

Abstract

The article exposes how women, despite the difficulties that have arisen with the sociocultural and socioeconomic transformations of recent decades due to their massive entry into the labor market, continue to expand their participation in contemporary societies and states with an unusual role. , adapting to technological challenges and environmental crises, without neglecting the multiple roles such as home care, motherhood, assistance to parents and their romantic partners, among other activities that determine a greater schedule in daily activities than their peers . Although progress has been made in the employment of women, when the conditions in which they enter are analyzed, it is shown how fundamental rights are violated, because a significant group of women is in informality, as a phenomenon not only in Latin America but worldwide, where job stability and social security are limited. These effects on labor rights also fall on the family nucleus, as in the case of mothers who are heads of families. The article also analyzes the labor performance of women with respect to new technologies in the Latin American context and the impulse that international and supra-state organizations such as the ILO and the UN have made at the global level, and at the regional level the Inter-American System of Rights through the Inter-American Court and the Inter-American Commission to guarantee and protect the fundamental labor rights of women in Colombia and the region.
