Conductas discriminatorias directas o sutiles en contextos laborales hacia las personas afroecuatorianas en la ciudad de Loja durante el año 2017.

Abstract

The main objective of this research was to determine if there are direct or subtle discriminatory behaviors, within the labor contexts towards the afro-Ecuadorian population in Loja. We used a qualitative, descriptive, non-experimental transverse design; the information was collected from twenty-eight participants distributed in five focus groups of four to seven people each one; first a socio-demographic record was used, and then three stories with work scenarios involving direct or subtle discrimination towards afro-Ecuadorians. Sociodemographic data were analyzed with the SPSS 24 program and the information obtained through the focus groups was analyzed using the ATLAS.Ti 7 program. It is concluded that in the three labor scenarios mentioned above there are discriminatory behaviors, either directly or subtly, which are very close to the reality of the Afro-descendant population in the country, so it is necessary to combat discrimination to achieve a society more human rights.
