The Government advances in the preparation of the labor reform bill that will be filed before Congress on March 16and a few days after this happens the Minister of Labor, Gloria Inés Ramírez, gave an interview to week in which he advanced some details on the most important points of the document.
In this sense, it has been said that one of the objectives is that the night shift starts at 6 pm and not at 9 pm. Likewise, it is being considered that Saturday count as overtime.
“The three parts of the reform will be: principles, individual labor and collective labor. This is how the project will be built. That is what we are discussing. We have already begun to discuss the principles: equal opportunities for workers, minimum and vital remuneration, employment stability, the principle of favorability and progressivity”, said the minister.
The workers are more concerned about their job stability
Now, What will happen to the holidays? Ramírez assured that the 15 business days of vacation “are not increased. They don’t touch each other. They remain as they are.”

However, it does continue to bet on the progressive reduction of the weekly work day, which was ordered by the Law 2101 of 202: “The reform is designed to respect the limits of the maximum daily working hours and respond to international standards.”
