Abstract
This paper aims to explain if the labor reform of Law No. 20,940 and the regulations that it introduces to the norms of Chilean collective law is in line with the notions of the theory of labor relations. In order to achieve the proposed verification objective, this paper focuses first on describing the theory of labor relations, reviewing some definitions and some of its main ideologists. In a second moment it will proceed to review if the current regulation agrees with the presuppositions of the already indicated theory. Finally, it will point out some reflections about the compliance in our legislation with the model of labor relations. We are interested then to verify that the basic premises of labor relations theory are fulfilled in our legal order after the reform cited, trying to carry out a study under a different optic.
