    This research aimed to determine the influence of organizational culture on the right to digital disconnection at work among employees of Corporación Impactex and Static Moda, located in Ambato, Ecuador. The study arose from the need to understand how organizational dynamics and the increasing use of digital technologies may affect employees' rest periods and overall wellbeing. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach with descriptive and correlational levels. The population consisted of 100 employees from both administrative and operational areas of the two companies; therefore, the entire population was included in the study. Data were collected through the Denison Organizational Culture Survey and an instrument adapted from the Digital Disconnection Survey developed by the National Institute for Safety and Health at Work (INSST). The results revealed favorable levels of organizational culture, particularly regarding employee commitment, organizational mission, adaptability, and consistency. However, limited knowledge about the right to digital disconnection and a moderate level of availability outside working hours were identified, especially among administrative staff. The Spearman correlation test yielded a correlation coefficient of ρ = -0.018 and a significance level of 0.856, indicating that there is no statistically significant relationship between organizational culture and the right to digital disconnection at work. Consequently, the null hypothesis was accepted. It was concluded that although the organizations studied exhibit a favorable organizational culture, this does not necessarily guarantee the effective exercise of the right to digital disconnection. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen institutional policies, employee training, and organizational strategies aimed at preventing workplace hyperconnectivity.

    El derecho a la desconexión laboral en el teletrabajo y la hiperconectividad, en la era digital
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Derecho, 2026-07-08) Masaquiza Sailema, Lorenza Marisol; Masabanda Analuiza, Galo Iván
    This paper analyzes the right to disconnect from work in the context of teleworking and the challenges that the digital world and hyperconnectivity pose to this right. The overall objective was to analyze the degree of guarantee and effectiveness of the right to disconnect from work in teleworking, compared to hyperconnectivity, within the Ecuadorian legal system. The study employed a qualitative, descriptive-explanatory, documentary-jurisprudential methodology, complemented by semi-structured interviews with five experts in the field of labor law in Tungurahua (a lawyer, a human resources specialist, and judges). The results showed that, although specific rules exist in the Constitution, the Labor Code, and Ministerial Agreement MDT-2022-237, these regulations are disorganized, limited, and not widely known. The use of hyperconnectivity, which occurs when employees connect with colleagues outside of work hours via WhatsApp, email, and calls, impacts fundamental rights such as rest, mental health, privacy, and family life. Experts agree on the existence of chronic stress, digital burnout, and a significant gap in the application of regulations. It follows that the right to disconnect from work in Ecuador is more of a hope than a guarantee. A comprehensive legislative reform, mandatory disconnection protocols, intensified controls, and an organizational culture that promotes work-life balance are essential.
