Vision

To be a reference in legal research on labor issues in the world.

Mission

To publish unpublished research articles related to labor procedural law for the protection of the rights and interests of citizens.

Focus and scope

The Revista de Derecho Procesal del Trabajo is a biannual publication that receives contributions and papers from researchers on labor procedural law for the protection of the rights and interests of citizens, with a predominance of Law No. 29497, as well as other relevant topics in labor matters. It is addressed to magistrates, researchers, university professors, teachers, students and a public interested in the issues of academic reflection, critical work and legal research.

The journal's articles are anonymously refereed by specialists from outside the institution, who take into account the following evaluation criteria: originality, contribution of the work, timeliness and contribution to legal knowledge.

The journal reserves the right of publication and, if the article submitted is accepted, may make the necessary style corrections and other adjustments to comply with the requirements of the publication.

Subjects

We accept research concerning labor procedural law for the protection of the rights and interests of citizens, with a predominance of Law No. 29497, as well as other relevant topics in labor matters.

Cultural, social and economic relevance

The Revista de Derecho Procesal del Trabajo is characterized by the dissemination of knowledge of substantive and procedural labor law in order to contribute to the improvement in the application and interpretation of the law and, in this way, contribute to the predictability of judicial decisions for the benefit of society. The Judicial Branch thus materializes its commitment to ethics, research and human development, and the Revista del Derecho Procesal del Trabajo collaborates with the publication of works by international researchers, guaranteeing the production, distribution and reuse of knowledge in the field of labor law.

Periodicity

The journal is published every six months. Issues are published between January-June and July-December.

Editorial process and editorial flow

Articles submitted to the journal are pre-screened by the editorial team, who decide whether the article can be accepted, rejected or if it requires modifications in content. Their decision will be based on the objectives and standards of the journal. Likewise, the percentage of similarity of the manuscripts is reviewed in Turnitin and the respective report is generated. Manuscripts selected for publication are then submitted to blind peer reviewers, as detailed in the reviewer policy (https://revistas.pj.gob.pe/revista/index.php/rdpt/reviewGuidelines). Authors receive the reports through the platform and are given a deadline for the submission of comments and scopes. The new versions are sent to the reviewers and new Turnitin reports are issued. After the editorial decision, the team contacts the authors to submit the work to the proofreading team, which obtains the clean version to be sent to the layout team. Once the authors' approvals have been obtained, the publications are registered with DOI and the metadata is completed. Finally, the phase of dissemination and thanks to authors, reviewers and readers begins.

Peer review

The articles of the journal are refereed under the double-blind review modality, in which the evaluators external to the institution do not know the data of the authors at the time of the review. The reviewers, at the time of the review, take into account the following evaluation criteria: originality, contribution of the work, timeliness and contribution to legal knowledge. The journal reserves the right of publication and, if the article submitted is accepted, it may make the necessary style corrections and other adjustments to meet the requirements of the publication.

Conflict of interest 

In the event of a conflict of interest, the author must declare it in the Letter of Originality sent to the journal at the time the manuscript is submitted. Conflicts of interest not declared at the evaluation stage will be subject to clarification by the author when contacted by the Editorial Team of the journal. If the explanation is not satisfactory, the manuscript will be withdrawn from the editorial process. In the case of research that has already been published, the article will be retracted from the journal and an explanation of the decision will be included in accordance with the COPE ethical principles to which the journal subscribes.

Instructions on financing

The author should indicate the source of funding related to the work to be published. If funding was provided, the author should record the following: "The research was carried out with funding from .... in the framework of the research project..." or "Self-financed"; or, otherwise, "The research was carried out without financing" or ""The research was not financed".

CRediT - Taxonomy of Academic Collaboration Roles

The journal will express the form and level of contribution in which each author of an article participates, in order to make individual contributions explicit, reduce disputes among authors and encourage academic participation. For this purpose, the journal adheres to the use of CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy) that systematically allows showing the contribution made by each author during the research, which establishes the following types of participation:

1. Project administration: responsibility for the management and coordination of the planning and execution of the research activity.
2. Acquisition of funds: Acquisition of financial support for the project that led to this publication.
3. Formal analysis: Application of statistical, mathematical, computational, or other formal techniques to analyze or synthesize study data.
4. Conceptualization: Ideas; formulation or evolution of the general objectives and goals of the research.
5. Data curation: Management activities related to annotating (producing metadata), deleting, and maintaining research data, in use and reuse phases (including writing software code, where these activities are necessary to interpret the data itself).
6. Writing - reviewing and editing: Preparation, creation and/or presentation of published work by those in the research group, specifically, critical review, comments or revisions, including pre- or post-publication stages.
7. Research: Development of a research process, specifically, experiments or data collection/testing.
8. Methodology: Development or design of methodology, creation of models.
9. Resources: Provision of study materials, reagents, materials of any kind, patients, laboratory samples, animals, instrumentation, computer resources or other analytical tools.
10. Writing - original draft: Preparation, creation and/or presentation of the published work, specifically, the writing of the initial draft (includes, if relevant to the volume of translated text, translation work).
11. Software: Programming, software development, software design, implementation of computer code and supporting algorithms, testing of existing code components.
12. Supervision: Responsibility for supervision and leadership for planning and execution of research activity, including external mentoring.
13. Validation: Verification, either as part of the activity or separately, of the overall replication / reproducibility of results / experiments and other research results.
14. Visualization: Preparation, creation and/or presentation of published work, specifically, visualization/presentation of data.
