LISOS Penalties for Not Keeping the Time Record
What the LISOS is
The LISOS (Law on Infringements and Penalties in the Social Order) is the rule that classifies labour infringements and sets their penalties. Failure to comply with time tracking falls among the serious infringements.
Penalty for not keeping the record
Not keeping the time record, doing it incompletely or not retaining it is a serious infringement. Penalties for serious infringements in labour relations fall within a range with bands (minimum, medium and maximum) depending on severity and circumstances.
The penalty can be applied taking into account the number of affected workers, which multiplies the financial risk.
Other related infringements
- Not respecting the working-day limits and rest periods.
- Exceeding the maximum overtime.
