The matter of inclusion in the Peruvian HRMS regulatory framework: progress in the incorporation of gender, disability, and intercultural approaches La inclusión en el marco regulatorio del SAGRH: avances en la incorporación de los enfoques de género, discapacidad e interculturalidad

Abstract

This article presents and analyzes the regulatory mechanisms for three of the main focuses of cross-sectional inclusion within the regulatory framework of the Peruvian Administrative System Management of Human Resources (HRMS): gender, disability and interculturality. The case study proposes as a general objective to carry out a qualitative document analysis that reviews the normative framework of the HRMS. Based on this, the proposed specific objective is to identify the characteristics of the regulation of said approaches in the human resources system, highlighting those processes in which they have been recognized and/or integrated to improve the functioning of the system.

The analysis shows different levels of regulatory development on each approach, having a higher number of the HRMS processes interposed with gender focus (5), the intercultural approach is recognized in the regulation of four processes and the disability approach only in two. There are also important differences in the level of depth and details between the regulatory mechanisms of each focus. For example, the disability focus only has regulations in two of the HRMS processes, and its development level is very thorough. While the incorporation of the intercultural approach, which has more guidelines in the HRMS regulations, doesn’t account for the implementation of mechanisms for such regulation. This article is an effort to highlight the contribution of these approaches in the HRMS (at the regulatory level), which will serve as a basis for evaluating their implementation in future research.
