How Do I Contribute to My Pension If I Work by Days or Weeks? This Is How It Works for Periods of Less Than a Month

El Tiempo
Labor and employment attorney Camilo Cuervo was interviewed by El Tiempo about pension contributions by days or weeks in Colombia. The article explained that this modality allows connection to the pension, occupational risk and family subsidy systems for people who work for periods of less than a month and earn less than a monthly minimum wage. Mr. Cuervo noted that the pension reform does not change this aspect but rather ratifies what already existed in Colombian legislation.

"Regarding the issue of daily contributions, it can be done, as long as the person does not work more than 20 days a month, because if they work 21 days, they are already obliged to contribute for the entire month," he said.
