Reviewers

For the review of submissions to the Revista de Trabajo y Seguridad Social. CEF, two reviewers (a third, in cases of discrepancy) will be selected according to their area of specialization (which guarantees a value judgment based on expert knowledge of the subject).

Reviewers will act under the criteria of impartiality, objectivity, promptness, confidentiality, respect and acknowledgement of uncited sources. They must work in solidarity with the publishing line drawn and declare possible conflicts of interest. Furthermore, reviewers are external to the author's institution, as well as to the committees and publishing bodies of the journal.

Reviewers commit:

To make a fair and objective review of the articles.
To respect the evaluation deadlines established in the journal's publication rules.
To clearly state the arguments for their assessment.
Not to accept any articles for review in which there might be a conflict of interest that would limit their objectivity.
To refuse to review an article if they do not feel technically qualified.
To maintain the confidentiality of the information and data of the evaluated articles.
To accurately indicate the bibliographical references of fundamental works that may have been overlooked by the author(s).
To inform the publishing house of any similarity or overlap of the manuscript with other published works.
To evaluate manuscripts solely on their intellectual content, without regard to the race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnicity, nationality or political philosophy of the authors.
Not to use information, data, theories or interpretations of the manuscript for their own benefit or that of others, nor to harm third parties. Only in special cases may they seek the advice of other specialists in the field and they shall inform the journal's Management of such circumstances.

The journal has a database for internal use that processes and registers the transfer of articles and the set of reviewers. The list of reviewers in the one-year review period will be published thereafter. Evaluators receive an annual certificate of participation as reviewers of the publication, regardless of the number of articles they have reviewed per year.
