Abstract

This article seeks to determine unmet labor demand of qualified personnel in the tourist sector of Ecuador. The research has two parts, one from the comparative statistics of Ecuador with competitive markets whereby the possible development of tourism in the country is set to support the need for a critical mass of professionalized staff at the highest level, and Secondly, the employment data obtained from interviews with experts and news from the Ministry of Tourism, with which it was determined that the gap between staff trained and available to existing real labor demand in the country is significant.
