Abstract The Political Constitution of Colombia of 1991 stipulates that our country is constituted as a rule of Law, based on respect for human dignity and where the general interest prevails over the individual. This, necessarily, implies that society is a relevant actor to achieve this fundamental principle. Within that society, the business sector is the one that directly influences the generation of employment and the provision of resources for business innovation, which makes it an actor that encourage local and regional development. In the city of Girardot, the business sector is of great importance (tourism, financial sector, construction and mainly, the informal economy) but it does not obey the characteristics and functionalities of what a company should be. The statements presented above, produce business informality, a short business life, a negative impact on employment rates and little local and regional development for the city of Girardot.
