Publisher: Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Management
Description: El empleo de escasa capacitación laboral es una de las características notorias de la actividad turística en los destinos emergentes e incluso los consolidados. En el caso del empleo infantil, esta situación es fácilmente observable en distintos destinos turísticos de México. El objetivo general fue analizar la influencia del turismo hacia el trabajo infantil en Playa del Carmen y Cozumel, dos de los principales destinos turísticos de Quintana Roo. Se determinaron los factores que fomentan o inhiben la práctica que atenta contra los derechos de los menores: la imagen turística, lagunas legales, situación de pobreza. Los resultados permitirán diseñar mejores políticas públicas para prevenir el trabajo infantil en los destinos turísticos.

In this context, the general objective was to analyze the influence of tourism on child labor in Playa del Carmen and Cozumel, the two main tourist destinations in Quintana Roo. The following were determined as factors that foster or inhibit any practice that violates the rights of minors: tourism reputation, legal deficiencies, poverty situation. Outcomes will allow the design of better public policies against child labor in tourist destinations.
