“POLICIES FOR THE FORMALIZATION OF MICRO AND SMALL ENTERPRISES IN
COLOMBIA”

In our country a phenomenon has been generated as in other Latin

American countries and it is the informal work produced by high
unemployment rates. And with the arrival of this phenomenon some
problems generated by micro-enterprises and self-employment such as:
low productivity in comparison with the costs of formal operation, the
same and inadequate for micro and small businesses, information as an
option attractive in terms of flexibility and independence and social
control.
That is why they are generating formalization policies so that informal
employment and microenterprises can have the opportunity to compete
and provide productivity to the economy. The strategies that are used
are the government simplifies the procedures for the registration of
companies and licenses, the laws and special regulations in relation to
fiscal obligations, the quality of the services provided by the different
types of social security schemes and the organization of training
programs and information campaigns for employees and employees of
micro and small companies.
