    The research analyzed the applicability of the principle of non-waivability of labor rights in cases of voluntary resignation and evaluated whether this principle ensured workers” job stability in Ecuador. The study aimed to identify the legal effects of non-waivability, support the protection of job stability, and determine whether its application effectively safeguarded workers when submitting a resignation. A mixed-method approach was used, combining a quantitative method through surveys conducted with workers and a qualitative method through interviews with labor law experts. Descriptive and explanatory methods were also applied to characterize the labor context and understand the causes and consequences related to resignation. The findings revealed that many workers lacked knowledge about the scope of their rights, allowing some employers to exert direct or indirect pressure to induce resignations in order to avoid legal obligations. It was also observed that, despite the existence of national regulations and international conventions aimed at protecting job stability, violations persisted, indicating obstacles in the practical application of the principle. The research concluded that the effective protection of job stability depended on the proper application of the principle of non-waivability, the strengthening of inspection processes, and continuous training in labor rights, all of which were essential to ensuring fair employment relationships that respect human dignity.
