Authors

  • Javiera Farías Pereira Leasur
  • Agustín Walker Martínez Leasur

Abstract

The article describes the Labor Code salary’s protection and regulation, and compares it with the Decree 943 that contains a labor and training statute for prison labor. The comparison is made with the purpose of showing the inequality of both regimes, to the detriment of the workers deprived of freedom, and the human right violations (from both constitutional and international human rights law) produced by this inequality.

Keywords:

Labor prison, deprivation of liberty, jail
