Easily manage employment in Chile

Employees can be terminated with just cause, for reasons such as dishonesty, negligence, fraud, or any other work-related offences, and although the managerial staff can be dismissed at will, a severance package is mandated by law.

An employer must provide at least 30 days’ notice of an employee’s termination.

Employees dismissed for business reasons (e.g., redundancy) are entitled to a severance package equivalent to a month’s wages, while employees guilty of violating their contract or other serious offences won’t be entitled to severance pay.
