Abstract

The author presents the problem of gender violence, contextualizing it in the field of labor relations. States that labor law has remained oblivious to the reality of gender violence; in general, our discipline has given a crearment of gender issues from the standpoint of production, namely, equal pay, mobbing, discrimination, etc., ignoring the consequences and requirements that the victim of gender violence expects from the workplace. In this paper, we propose to change this unilateral perspective, using for that purpose the legislative tools that the Spanish legal system have.

Keywords:
