Rights and duties of the employee

The work is a daily reality for millions of people in around the world. Unfortunately, many are unemployed for which the American constitution provides for the necessary protective measures to ensure that such persons are never left on their own. Do not forget that the worker has around him a broad legal protection that has nothing to envy to the agenda in favor of those without income. The work can be done in a subsidiary or independently. This is a necessary distinction because different working positions correspond to the respective legal obligations. Article 2222 of the Civil Code recognizes a self-employed person who is obligated to make, after consideration, work or service with their own work and without subordination to the purchaser. This is essentially the so-called self-employed or otherwise known as freelancers.

Moreover, the rights of the employee in relation to the benefits are as follows:

Property rights are those concerning the economic aspects of pay and severance pay (TFR, known as settlement). The pay is a right inseparable from service provided. It must be in accordance with predetermined deadlines and without fail. The wages must be proportional to the work done enough to ensure the livelihood to the worker and his family, and equally between men and women. Severance pay will be calculated proportionally according to the years of work at the same institution

Personal rights affect the physical integrity and health. The employer should in fact ensure a safe and regularly checked. Worker is entitled to rest periods, daily, weekly and weekend. It is essential that the worker is turned into a job for which he has enough skills so that they cannot run the risks of inexperience. The employee has the right to retain their jobs in case of illness, injury, military service, pregnancy and ...
