Colombian employment costs go well beyond social security: employers pay a service bonus (prima) and severance savings (cesantÃas) with 12% interest, and ending an indefinite contract without just cause triggers an indemnity based on salary and years of service.
The best EOR for Colombia itemises those statutory benefits, keeps up with the 2025 labour reform (the 42-hour week, night work from 7 pm and rising Sunday surcharges), and is clear about who pays termination costs.
- 1
Itemised prima and cesantÃas
Ask whether the prima, cesantÃas and their interest are itemised or bundled into the fee, and how accruals are invoiced.
- 2
2025 labour reform
Check how the provider applies the 42-hour week, night work from 7 pm and the Sunday and holiday surcharge rising to 100% by July 2027.
- 3
Termination costs
Indefinite contracts owe an indemnity if ended without just cause. Confirm who pays it and how final settlements are handled.
- 4
Integral salary for senior hires
For salaries of at least 13 minimum wages, ask whether the provider offers integral salary contracts.
