The Ministry of Labor clarified in an opinion that employers must pay the value of the transportation assistance as a digital connectivity assistance to any private or public sector workers earning up to two legal minimum wages.
In addition, it stated that collective agreements between employers, workers and trade union organizations are binding for all parties and must therefore be fully implemented by all parties. These agreements may be amended by the parties to agree to temporary changes regarding acquired benefits , with the aim of maintaining and protecting employment during the current health emergency in our country.
