ANALYSIS OF THE FIGURE, DISMISSAL INTEMPESTIVE IN THE ORDERING LEGAL LAW OF ECUADOR, WITH THE USE OF DIFFUSE COGNITIVE MAPS

Abstract

In the workplace, the worker is considered the weakest part of the employment relationship. Untimely dismissal is a social problem in Ecuador. This paper aims to evaluate the situation of untimely dismissal in this country, through the opinion of experts on this topic. For this study, the method known as Fuzzy Cognitive Map has been used, which are directed graphs to represent relationships between concepts. Each vertex of the graph represents a concept and each edge the causal relationship between them. Each edge is associated with a value in [-1, 1] that represents the degree of causality between the concepts. When the value is negative it means that while one variable increases the other decreases and vice versa, when the value is positive then either, both variables increase or both decrease simultaneously. This first phase classifies each studied variable according to its influence on the others in terms of transmitter (it does not depend on another one and others depend on it), receiver (it depends on others and none depends on it), ordinary (it is both dependent on others as others depend on it). In the second phase, the Neutrosophic AHP technique is applied to assess the situation in Ecuador in this regard. Neutrosophic AHP consists of assigning a score to alternatives through expert evaluation of criteria and subcriteria, where a pair-wise comparison is made of the importance of one criterion over another. The use of neutrosophic sets has the advantage of including indeterminacy and calculation with linguistic terms. Neutrosophic AHP provides weights to each criterion to evaluate the total situation of untimely dismissal, which are used to obtain a final value once the evaluations are carried out by the experts. The results confirm that the situation is punctuated as 4.7 in a scale of 1-10.
