Special Examination of Human Talent Management in the Municipal Decentralized Autonomous Governments of Ecuador

Abstract

This investigation carries out an analysis of seven audit reports carried out by the General Comptroller of the State through the application of a special examination to the Autonomous Decentralized Municipal Governments of Ecuador (GADs), the main themes of these audits are related to the regulations applicable to the human talent planning subsystems, recruitment, personnel selection, position classification, payment of remunerations, training, and ultimately to the management and administration of human talent that the GADs have executed for a certain period. This analysis managed to determine multiple legal situations due to action and omission by those responsible for the human talent process and the municipal authority, in such a way that the laws and other regulations that regulate public institutions were not observed, this can be seen in the Municipalities of Camilo Ponce Enriquez, Guaranda, Montufar, Quevedo, San Cristóbal, Vinces and Quinsaloma taken as a sample for this study, managing to determine that in the seven mentioned municipalities the norms that are repeatedly violated are: the Organic Law of Public Service (LOSEP ,2010), LOSEP Regulations, State Comptroller Law (2002) and its Regulations, Labor Code, Internal Control Standards. The methodology that was used was through the deductive and inductive method, and the analytical one, which agreed to have a clear vision of the application of the laws and other regulations in order to identify the given breaches and draw up the respective conclusions.
