Workers Rights

Honduran labor law requires employers to pay workers double their daily wage for any work performed during the Morazán Week holiday (October 7–10), which combines three October civic observances.

Honduras's main business council, Cohep, is seeking modifications to the Part-Time Employment Law, calling it a failure, while labor groups warn the proposed changes would revive wage-hour abuses.

A former driver for Suyapa Medios, the Catholic Church media foundation, has sued over his dismissal after nearly 11 years of employment, claiming the company violated labor law and left him without health coverage while battling biliary cancer.

Honduras requires employers to pay workers their annual 14th-month bonus (decimocuarto) by June 30, a mandatory benefit calculated as one month's average salary over the preceding 12 months.
