Abstract
The intervention Social Work refers to the systematic and coherent process that is essentially oriented towards the modification/transformation of some social problem. In this regard, Social Work as a profession emphasizes the capacity and quality of intervention that each professional should possess, and the social recognition that is acquired during their professional development. In the city of Quito, the working conditions of social workers have been disrupted, and consequently, this has affected their performance, and the impact generated in their interventions. On the other hand, the study was directed towards conducting a theoretical and conceptual analysis of the working conditions of social workers and their impact on social intervention. A quantitative approach was applied, which has allowed us to reveal certain adversities that the profession faces in the current context and that are of concern to academia. The studies reveal a trend towards job instability, lack of security and stability, and insufficient guarantees, tending towards precariousness, which threatens the quality and sustainability of Social Work. Critical reflection on changes in labor activity that has been generated over time will help to identify tensions arising in practice, from which challenges and challenges for the profession in relation to the current situation will become evident. which factors such as the implemented economic model and the State's limited concern are involved and determine results that are always poorly desired.
