La reducción de la jornada laboral en Colombia puso a prueba la liquidación de nómina de las empresas y el cálculo de recargos: “Se modifican variables clave”

The implementation of the 42-hour weekly work schedule has officially entered into force in Colombia. This transition, established by Law 2101 of 2021, took place over a five-year period.

The new labor framework has tested corporate payroll liquidation and surcharge calculations across businesses. The regulatory change modifies key variables for employers while mandating that employee salaries and social benefits remain unreduced.
