About this statute

This text is the preamble of Law 789 of 2002, which says the law aims to support employment and expand social protection, and to amend some articles of the Labor Code. The social protection system must reduce vulnerability, improve quality of life, create conditions for workers to adapt to new work arrangements, and ensure new skills for citizens; it also creates a Social Protection Fund and states minimum rights to health, pension, and work. Creates a temporary employment subsidy for SMEs that create jobs for unemployed heads of household, with rules set by the national government. Regula quiénes tienen derecho al subsidio familiar en dinero y cuándo se paga, y prohíbe recibirlo dos veces. This article sets the monthly cash family subsidy amount called the Cuota Monetaria, restricts certain employer transfers between Cajas, and gives the Superintendencia supervisory and adjustment powers.
