Spanish to English translations [PRO] Law/Patents - Law (general) | | Spanish term or phrase: finiquito vs. acta de conciliacion | Hello! I was hoping somebody might know how to translate these terms (in US or UK English but please specify if you can). The context is a list of documents needed to support an audit.
The auditors' client has dismissed several employees and the supporting documents required by the auditors are "copia de los finiquitos y actas de conciliación (CEMAC) de los despidos". I don't know what CEMAC is referring to but i thought perhaps it could provide more context.
Does anyone know how the terms are translated and perhaps what the difference is? |
| | | English translation:severance pay slip vs. record of the conciliation hearing | Explanation: In the context of Spanish labor law, the "finiquito" is tantamount to severance pay and likewise (in this case) refers to a document detailing the dismissed employee's severance pay (i.e., all accrued salaries due, compensation, etc.), while the "acta de conciliación" are the minutes or record of the mandatory conciliation hearing that must be held before an employee may be dismissed.
Here are definitions:
FINIQUITO: Finiquito (liquidación y saldo de las deudas salariales): Ajuste de todas las cantidades devengadas (incluidas las posibles indemnizaciones a que se tenga derecho) con motivo del cese en la relación laboral.
También, certificado en el que se detallan los conceptos y cantidades devengadas al cesar la relación laboral.
ACTO DE CONCILIACIÓN: Es un requisito previo para la tramitación de cualquier procedimiento por despido ante el Juzgado de lo Social. Este acto afecta a trabajadores y trabajadoras que reciban carta de despido alegando cualquier causa o hayan sido despedidos verbalmente impidiéndole el acceso al puesto de trabajo. En ambos casos si el trabajador o trabajadora no consideran justificada la acción empresarial deben iniciar las actuaciones de conciliación.
