Typical settlement for someone being made redundant

José Mujica advirtió que “no es factible” pedir a empresas la suspensión de despidos y renunció al cobro como senador: “Sería robar la plata”El ex presidente de Uruguay cuestionó la propuesta de su partido de pedirle a las empresas que asuman el costo de la pandemia por coronavirus. “El capítulo de las consecuencias económicas será el tema más grave a la larga”, expresó

Even Pepe Mujica says it is stupid to stop companies from laying off staff during this crisis and is highly critical of Albie and Argentina.

Our government needs to stop living on its ideals and start living in the reality.

How does it work here if the employee was working “en negro”? in terms of redundancy payments is it the same as normal employment? Apart from that, in some cases it would be difficult to prove for how long someone was employed, and also what salary was paid etc

In addition, would the employer then also get a problem for not having paid social contributions etc. if the case went to court? Would the employee get a problem as well? (The latter i doubt)

Absolutely the employer would have a huge problem. They still have all rights even if in Negro and even if they never received them. If they go to this justice you are f#%€d. They don’t need to “prove” anything. The employee is unlikely to have problems as they would usually be the “victim” in the case.

Hiring in the black is just as risky as hiring in the white, however usually both parties have an interest in avoiding taxes etc. which means it is hugely common and even preferred by a lot of labour.

Hence the importance of good relationships and reaching “agreements”.
