Percepciones sobre las barreras y oportunidades en el acceso laboral de las personas mayores de 40 años.

Abstract

The purpose of this document is to analyze the barriers and opportunities in accessing employment for people over 40 years of age in Guayaquil, for the period 2024, in order to identify strategies that promote labor inclusion. To do this, it was based on a mixed-approach methodological design, with an exploratory, descriptive level and a type of applied research. Its final sample was 20 unemployed workers and 20 who are working, as well as 10 people who work in the human talent area. In this way, it was possible to determine that these people have barriers from their age, the need to train and adapt to new modalities and technologies of work. There are also organizational and personal barriers, which must be worked on by each worker to improve their skills and abilities. That is, there must be strategies to encourage their hiring and permanence in their jobs, so they must continue training and have the support of the State in better inclusive legislation.
