FAJARDO, Luis Eduardo y GUATAQUI, Juan Carlos. CONSTITUTIONAL COURT DECISIONS AND LABOR MARKET. Rev.econ.inst. [online]. 2000, vol.2, n.3, pp.80-103. ISSN 0124-5996.
This document presents a number of theoretical and practical arguments to explain how constitutional jurisprudence (rulings on the constitutionality of laws and on the acción de tutela) have become a factor affecting the flexibility of labor legislation in Colombia. Two examples are presented. One of them deals with the acción de tutela, the other with a case regarding the inconstitutionality of a law. The latter example is formalized through a microeconomic model taken from the producer's theory to demonstrate how a reduction in the degree of flexibility in labor contracts may affect decisions on wage levels and/or employment.
Palabras clave : constitution; labor legislation; contracts; labor market flexibility.
