Abstract: Ruling 1179-18-EP/23 of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador analyzes a case of ineffective dismissal presented by Claudia Andrea Calvo Campos against the Indoamérica Technological University. This process involved the interpretation of article 195.1 of the Labor Code, which regulates untimely dismissal and reinforced protection for pregnant and breastfeeding women. The Plenary Session of the Constitutional Court evaluated whether the contested ruling of the Specialized Labor Chamber of the National Court of Justice complied with the guarantees of motivation and respect for the constitutional rights of the plaintiff. The Court concluded that the cassation ruling contained sufficient normative foundation and that it did not depart from hetero-binding or self-binding precedents. Therefore, it dismissed the extraordinary protection action. The case highlighted the need to strengthen the job stability of women in vulnerable conditions, such as breastfeeding, and underlined the tensions between traditional legal interpretations and the constitutional principles of non-discrimination and favorability. Likewise, the saved vote of constitutional judge Jhoel Escudero Soliz emphasized the importance of applying reinforced protection that guarantees the job stability of this priority group.
