In Colombia, there are two main forms of contracting, regulated by the substantive labor code and the civil code: employment contracts and contracts for the provision of services.
(See: Petro explained if service contracts will cease to exist).
These modalities are born as a solution of the companies for the linking of human resources, seasonal or extemporaneous, in order to supply and complement the demand of businesses in various professional fields.
(See: Differences between temporary employment and service provision contract).
And in this episode of Economicast we analyze the pros and cons of the provision of services and whether or not it would be good to eliminate them.
(See: Control of contracts and working hours, proposals from the Ministry of Labor).
