Some will be urgent but most will have a timeline of 1-2 weeks. Below example is from a set of documents on the topic of labor issues - benefits, immigration, welfare, pension... Each document is 4-8 pages long. Some contain simple tables. You will find that most of the information if of the same type and even content. ---------------------- SAMPLE: Service bonus – Employers are required to pay for a “service bonus” equal to 30 days per year payable each June 30 and December 20, or at the termination of the contract. If a worker works less than a full year the bonus payments must be proportional to the amount of time worked. Severance – Severance pay is governed by Law 50, 1990. For employees hired after January 1, 1991, an employer must deposit funds for severance pay each year (by February 15) into an account for each employee managed by a pension fund administrator. The amount of severance due is equal to one month salary for each year worked. The salary amount is calculated as the last wage rate, provided it has not changed in the last three months of the year, or the average monthly salary for the full year or portion thereof. In addition, each January employers are required to pay employees 12% annual interest on the severance pay amount deposited. Family allowances – Within the first ten days of the month all employers must contribute 9% of their payroll to offset mandatory social welfare costs administered by three different entities. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are exempt from paying into the Cajas for the first two years of operations. In Colombia small companies are defined as those with 50 or fewer employees and medium companies are defined as those with between 51 and 200 employees. To make the payments, companies must register with a private service provider (Caja de Compensacion Familiar) or a bank. The Cajas provide cash subsidies for underage children, access to subsidized housing, recreation, training, and similar services. The contribution is broken down into three payments: a) 4% paid to a Caja with which the investor will choose to affiliate; b) 3% goes to the Colombian Family Welfare Institute (ICBF), which provides a range of welfare and relief services to children, women, and other populations; and 2% to the National Vocational Training Service (SENA). Construction companies are exempt from the requirement to hire SENA-trained apprentices but instead must pay one LMMS per 20 employees. Work clothes and shoes – Employers must purchase one pair of appropriate work shoes and appropriate work clothes for each employee who has worked for a company for more than three months and earns twice the LMMS or less. These articles are to be provided on April 30, August 31, and December 30 every year. Money cannot be given in lieu of the clothes and shoes. Transportation allowance – Employers must provide a monthly transportation allowance for workers earning no more than twice the LMMS. Presently the allowance is COP $42,000 (US $18.26 ) per month; the amount is set by government on an annual basis. Meals allowance – Investors must also provide a meals allowance for employees earning two LMMS or less. This allowance is not set by legislation but negotiated as part of collective bargaining agreements. Maternity leave – Investors must allow pregnant employees 12 weeks of maternity leave per pregnancy beginning two weeks before the expected date of birth. The cost of the salary is paid for by the social security health system. Maternity leave can also be claimed by mothers, and adoptive fathers without a spouse of permanent companion, who adopt children under seven. Women who have a miscarriage or give birth to a stillborn child are entitled to between two to four weeks of paid leave depending on the determination of the attending medical professional. Women cannot be fired while they are pregnant or breastfeeding without prior approval by a labor inspector from the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection. Paternity leave – Employers must allow fathers who have contributed to the social security system for at least 100 weeks to take between four working days of paternity leave if they are the only contributor in the family to the social security system. If the father also has a spouse or permanent companion that is contributing to the social security system, a father is entitled to eight working days paid leave
