Ministry of Labor launches program to verify Christmas bonus deliveries

Written by Miguel Crespín

The head of the Ministry of Labor, Rolando Castro, together with the vice minister Sofía Rodríguez, launched the plan Defiende tu Aguinaldo, which aims to verify the delivery of the economic compensation stipulated in the law.

According to the official, more than 700 employees of the institution will be deployed for the verifications. They will talk to both employers and employees to have a comprehensive picture of the situation in the establishments. If non-compliances are detected, a sanctioning process will be initiated.

The official mentioned that: "From december 12 to 20 all Christmas bonuses must be delivered throughout the country", therefore the institution will defend the Christmas bonus of the working class.

Castro indicated that there are three types of mechanisms to report irregularities: people can contact the call center 130 where they can be attended in extended hours. In addition, they will have the option of making their complaints anonymously in the social networks of the Ministry of Labor or they can go to the headquarters of the institution located throughout the territory.
