The month of December is highly anticipated not only because of the Christmas holidays, but also because of holidays and work benefits such as bonuses. Companies have until the 15th of said month to deposit it, otherwise the worker can file a complaint with Sunafil. However, there are cases when a person may be fired before receiving this amount.
Below, we detail what your rights are if you are going through this moment and other details of the gratification, so that you can take advantage of this amount and make your Christmas purchases for your loved ones.
What happens if I am fired before the bonus is deposited?
According to the Ministry of Labor and Employment Promotion (MTPE), if the employer does this act, the dismissed employees have the right to truncated bonuses. The amount will be calculated based on the months worked since the beginning of the computable semester and the date on which the dismissal occurred. It should be noted that the payment is made up to 48 hours after the dismissal.
What are the requirements to access the settlement of social benefits?
The liquidation of benefits refers to all payments truncated at the time of termination of the relationship. These may be compensation for time of service (CTS) truncated, truncated vacation, gratification, etc. We detail the conditions to collect it if you were fired:
- Be registered in the electronic form.
- Have at least one month of employment relationship.
- Any reason behind the termination of the employment relationship (resignation, mutual agreement, termination due to a trial period, dismissal, among others) applies to claim the liquidation of social benefits, as long as the previous requirements are met.
