Section Name

Article 71
Starting Date: 02/01/2005

If the Worker, as a result of his fault, caused loss, damage or destruction to machines, products or equipment of the Establishment, he shall be obliged to compensate the Employer for the damage resulting therefrom, provided that an investigation shall precede the obligation of the Worker for such compensation.

The Employer may deduct the value of the compensation from the Remuneration of the Worker on condition that such deduction does not exceed the Remuneration of seven days in a month.

The Worker may file before the Department a complaint against the assessment of the compensation made by the Employer, within seven days from the date of notification of such assessment. If the Department cancelled the Employer's decision, or assessed a lower compensation, then the Employer shall return to the Worker within a maximum of seven days the excess amount he deducted without lawful grounds.
