TL;DR
- Workers in Colombia receive a 'prima de servicios' (service bonus) in December.
- This bonus is legally mandated and equivalent to one month's salary per year of work.
- It is paid in two installments: one before June 30th and another before December 20th.
- Employers failing to pay on time face legal sanctions and fines.
- Formal employees, including those on fixed or indefinite contracts, domestic workers, drivers, and rural workers, are entitled to the bonus.
- Independent contractors, apprentices without formal links, and those on service agreements are not eligible.
