This webinar organized by the IEA Informal Work TC in collaboration with the Universidad de Atacama and the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador will present an overview of the situation of informal work in Latin America with emphasis on Chile and Ecuador and then delve into specific case examples from both countries. The cases presented focus on the use of human factors and ergonomics methodologies and their utility to diagnose the situation and identify opportunities for transformation of work. The results of these experiences will be discussed to address aspects ranging from the logic of socio-technical reorganization and public policy to the adaptation of tools and design applications focused on precarious work.
