Social Security Regulations (Colombia)

Codigo Procesal Del Trabajo Y De La Seguridad Social (Social Security Regulations)

Employers are obligated to pay social benefits (unemployment benefits, service bonuses) and make pension, healthcare and occupational risk contributions to the Comprehensive Social Security System.

Affiliation to the Social Security System is voluntary when it comes to hiring foreign workers, as long as the employee is not covered by a pension scheme in their country of origin or any other.
