The 2025 labor regulations consolidate and expand a series of paid leaves that allow workers to be absent from their jobs while still receiving their pay. These absences range from family events and medical reasons to force majeure and training, facilitating the balance between personal and professional life.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Labor legislation establishes various <\/span>paid leave<\/b> so that workers can meet family responsibilities, celebrate key events, or fulfill civic duties without losing pay. The main provisions in effect in 2025 are detailed below:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Marriage or registration of a common-law partnership<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n
      \n
    • \n

      • Duration<\/b>: 15 calendar days.<\/span>
        <\/span><\/li>\n
      • Beginning<\/b>: From the day of the wedding or the formalization of the de facto couple.<\/span>
        <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        This leave allows employees to enjoy a paid period of time to celebrate and organize their wedding or the official registration of their civil partnership. It is recommended that you notify your employer as far in advance as possible, providing documentation proving the date of the event.<\/span><\/p>\n

        2. Accident or serious illness, hospitalization or surgery<\/b><\/p>\n

          \n
        • \n

              \n
            • Who benefits<\/b>: Spouse, common-law partner or relatives up to the second degree.<\/span>
              <\/span><\/li>\n
            • Duration<\/b>: 5 days, not yet consecutive.<\/span>
              <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              In these cases, the leave is granted to care for family members who require care or supervision after an accident or serious illness. It is also extended to people living in the same household who need assistance. The employee can decide when to begin these days based on their medical situation.<\/span><\/p>\n

              3. Death of a spouse, common-law partner or close relatives<\/b><\/p>\n

                \n
              • \n
                  \n

                    \n
                  • Duration<\/b>: 2 days (4 if there is travel).<\/span>

                    <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    When a loved one dies, the law provides for this paid leave to facilitate formalities and farewells. If travel outside the hometown is necessary, it is extended to four days. The calculation generally begins on the day of death, but can be adapted to suit the family's circumstances.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    4. Change of habitual residence<\/b><\/p>\n

                      \n

                        • Duration<\/b>: 1 day.<\/span>

                          <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                          This permit allows the employee to relocate without unduly impacting their work. It is recommended that proof of ownership of the new residence (rental agreement or bill of sale) be presented to prove the need for the move.<\/span><\/p>\n

                          5. Compliance with inexcusable public and personal duties<\/b><\/p>\n

                            \n

                                <\/span><\/li>\n
                              • Duration<\/b>: The time required or as indicated by law or agreements.<\/span>
                                <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                These are mandatory absences that the employee cannot legally evade. The employee must present official proof of the call and notify the company as soon as they receive notification.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                6. Prenatal examinations, childbirth preparation, and adoption or foster care procedures<\/b><\/p>\n

                                  \n

                                      <\/span><\/li>\n

                                      <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                      Both the pregnant woman and her partner may take advantage of these leaves, provided that the need to attend medical appointments or childbirth preparation talks is justified. In the case of adoption or foster care, interviews and assessments required by the authorities are considered.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                      7. Permission due to adverse weather conditions or force majeure<\/b><\/p>\n

                                            The law protects those who cannot travel to work for reasons beyond their control. It is essential to notify the company as soon as possible and, if possible, document the reason (for example, official emergency notifications or records of blocked roads).<\/span><\/p>\n

                                            8. Organ or tissue donation<\/b><\/p>\n

                                                  This leave recognizes the importance of solidarity and public health. In cases of complex donations or procedures involving hospitalization, the employee can take the time they need, in coordination with the company.<\/span><\/p>\n
