The main objective of labor law is to regulate the employer-worker relationship and to provide a regulatory framework and mechanisms that allow organizing and regulating the provision of services and resolving disputes that may arise between the parties, an aspect that is essential in any company or organization, for the proper development of its activities.
In the case of Peru, labor legislation is lagging far behind the dizzying changes that have been taking place in production processes and in the forms of work organization, in addition to not being systematized.
Faced with this scenario, legal accompaniment and preventive work are essential, and dialogue and the search for scenarios that encourage it are the tools that allow workers and employers to come together, in the search for solutions that allow the organization to plan its activities and employees to have conditions and a work environment that encourages their identification with the company’s objectives.
