Which workers will be entitled to paid leave and under
what conditions?
Those workers who will have to work next December 21st
will be entitled to a paid leave to vote, the duration of which will depend on
the time in which their working hours coincide with the opening of the Electoral
College.
Thus, the following permits are established during the
Election Day:
- Workers whose work schedule does not coincide with
the opening hours of the polling stations (From 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.) or
whose working day is less than 2 hours: They will not be entitled to paid leave
since the working day does not it prevents going to vote.
- Workers whose schedule coincides in 2 or more hours
and which is less than 4 hours: They will be entitled to a paid leave of 2
hours.
- Workers whose schedule coincides between 4 and 6
hours with that of the polling stations: They will have paid leave of 3 hours.
- Workers whose schedule coincides in 6 or more hours
with that of the polling stations: They will be entitled to a paid leave of 4
hours.
It should be noted that for part-time workers who work
less than usual, the duration of paid leave will be reduced in proportion to
the ratio between the hours that they develop and the normal working hours of
workers hired full time in the same company.
