Abstract

Abstract: This thesis focuses on the legal analysis of Judgment No. 986-19-JP/21 and related cases of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, linking it to Sustainable Development Goal No. 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, from a constitutional perspective. The research initially addresses the general importance of the SDGs as an international roadmap for sustainable development, analyzing their background, progress, and implications. Subsequently, SDG 8 is examined within its economic, political, and social context, highlighting the rights it protects, with an emphasis on access to justice and legal certainty in the workplace. A situational assessment of compliance with SDG 8 at the national and international levels is conducted, followed by an in-depth exploration of doctrinal and legal references on protected labor rights, articulating theory and current regulations. Finally, the selected ruling, considered an emblematic case of constitutional protection against workplace harassment, is analyzed, demonstrating the effective application of principles such as dignity, equity, and institutional integrity. This study demonstrates the intersection between constitutional justice, human rights, and sustainable development.
