Análisis de los principales problemas en el reclutamiento del personal para el campo en las fincas bananeras

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to analyze the main problems that small banana producers have, when hiring personnel for their farms. Many concepts of many authors were analyzed where they describe the hiring of personnel for the banana sector. Hiring of personnel in the agricultural sector has changed and will continue to change over the years. The agricultural sector not only faces potential internal threats (internal migration to the city), but also external ones, such as the abundance of its crops. For a long time, the work processes throughout the cultivation process in the banana sector have not undergone many technological changes and this can be seen in the fact that workers continue to harvest bananas in the traditional way; the porters, even the garrucheros who carry the bunches through the funicular cable, tied to their waist. Today's youth are not interested in the field or agricultural activities because of it: hard work and job instability, as a consequence of this, little by little the banana sector and the entire agricultural sector are being affected since there are no people who want to work. The salary issue was and is a point that has caused problems to close an employment contract, so today there are more workers who ask for a salary higher than what producers are willing to pay.
