Abstract

The informal economy has become a very important phenomenon and this created the need to better understand its significance and how its workers can obtain a voice and be better represented for their needs and concerns to be heard. This paper provides insight into the situation of workers in urban Ecuador where 50% of the workforce is part of the informal sector. It has based its research on interviews in trade unions and vulnerable workers' associations, and emphasizes the need to give these informal economy workers a voice as part of an effort to combat poverty.
