Variación del salario básico unificado en el Ecuador con relación a la canasta básica familiar en el periodo 2019-2023.

Abstract

This research analyzes the relationship between the unified basic salary and the basic family basket in Ecuador during the period 2019-2023. The general objective is to understand how the SBU and the CBF price have varied, through a bibliographic review of official sources to understand their relationship. The objectives include understanding the imbalance between salary and basket. The methodology used is analytical, breaking down elements to understand the phenomenon studied, and a case study approach is used to understand the causes and impact on the economy. The conclusions highlight that many families face difficulties in meeting their basic needs due to various factors, such as unemployment. Finally, actions such as minimum wage legislation, price stability and job creation are suggested to improve the economic situation of citizens and thus reduce inequality between the SBU and the CBF.
