National Holiday on November 2, 2018

Dear Clients and Friends:

ROMERO PINEDA & ASOCIADOS reminds you that in accordance with Article 190 of the Labor Code, November 2 of each year is established as paid leave for the commemoration of the “Day of the Dead”, which applies to both workers and workers in the public sector and the private sector.

Work centers that work on November 2 must pay an extraordinary salary made up of the ordinary salary plus a surcharge of the latter's 100%. Likewise, if they work overtime or work at night, the calculation for the payment of the surcharges will be made based on the aforementioned extraordinary salary.

For more information and legal assistance on this issue or on Corporate or Labor matters, please contact Beatriz Merino, Associate Attorney/Coordinator of the Labor Unit at (503) 2505-5555 or email bmerino@romeropineda.com.

It will be a pleasure for us to serve you.
