Our research is focused on the city of Alicante (Spain). In concrete, the sunken area studied is placed at the south of Alicante Port, being the point of entry from the airport to the city. There are two important reasons that have generated that depressed area. Firstly, the development of the city has led to a change in the use of the soil, and secondly, the extension of Alicante Port. This area used to be a metallurgical industrial zone, but during the last 40 years, it has overcome an urban growth. The European Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM), the most modern Film Studio in Europe 'Ciudad de la luz', a desalination plant and residential complexes and offices have settled down there. Unfortunately, all this development has occurred without taking into account the coastal needs. Regarding to that, several elements that contribute to the deterioration of the area can be found along the coast, that is the mouth of a rift called 'Barranco de las Ovejas' at north, the 'Agua Amarga' rift at south and the desalination sewage pipe. Besides, there is a merchandise train line adjoining the Maritime-Terrestrial Public Domain that provides service to the port, but hinders the way for pedestrians going to the beach.

RESUMEN: El trabajo y las normas que lo regulan han cambiado a lo largo de la historia debiéndose adaptar a las necesidades de desarrollo de la sociedad. De esta forma, nos encontramos con que el surgimiento de la regulación laboral estuvo marcado por la salvaguarda de la dignidad de los trabajadores, materializada por la regulación de las condiciones de trabajo y el aseguramiento social. Hoy en día existen nuevas formas de trabajo como: el teletrabajo, el outsourcing, el trabajo temporal, etc., que si bien son necesarias para el desarrollo económico de la sociedad, no están protegiendo las condiciones en las que se desempeña ese trabajo, ni la dignidad del trabajador. Es por ello que en este artículo se analiza a la dignidad desde la óptica histórica y jurídica para contextualizar y defi nir la dignidad de los trabajadores desde la perspectiva de los instrumentos jurídicos de la OIT y de los principales tribunales en materia de derechos humanos, para por último presentar algunos subtemas que permiten contextualizar la falta de protección a la dignidad del trabajador en el desarrollo actual del trabajo, tales como: las nuevas formas de contratación laboral, la violación a la intimidad del trabajador, la falta de aseguramiento social y la violencia en el trabajo, etc. Palabras clave: Trabajo, dignidad, seguridad socialABSTRACT: The job and the rules that regulate it have been changed through the history being due adapt to the development needs of society.
