Es necesario que informen los días feriados que el empleado cobró o cobrará durante el período que nos reclama. No incluya los días feriados pagados bajo el concepto de licencia de enfermedad, vacaciones regulares, licencia por maternidad u otros pagos, sino bajo el encasillado que le corresponde.
De acuerdo a los días laborables del empleado, informe el período que cubre el pago de salarios (desde - hasta).

Pagos del patrono durante la incapacidad - Si el patrono declara en el encasillado #xxx haber pagado salario completo por vacaciones regulares o por enfermedad , días feriados, pagos voluntario u otros en la solicitud al empleado durante el período de incapacidad, el pago de incapacidad se reducirá por el número de días pagados (Sección X(x) (X)).

Certification of the information required from the employer in this part of the claim is also of vital importance for the final determination of the length of disability and the amount to pay to the claimant. What follows are highlights of the important sections to be completed.
It is necessary to inform us of all holidays which were or will be paid to the employee during the period for which he or she is filing a claim. Do not include holidays that were paid for sick leave, regular vacations, maternity leave or other payments, except in the places provided for them.
According to the employee’s work schedule, fill out the period that is covered in paid salaries (from - until). Show payments in days, not hours; write down the gross amount and payment date. The information must be exact, as we will deduct benefits during the period for which the employer has paid whole salaries.
Payments made by the employer during the disability – If the employer declares in box #xxx that he or she has paid whole salaries for regular vacations or sick leave, holidays, voluntary payments or others in the petition to the employee during the period of disability, the disability payment will be reduced by the number of days paid (Section X(x) (X)). "Under no circumstance will such a payment exceed the total salaries paid to the worker, nor will it cover a period of disability for which payments are or will be made for vacations or sick leave determined by mandatory decree, collective bargaining or imposed by Law".

Although my career has been almost exclusively that of a software engineer, my unique bicultural abilities as a native speaker in both English and Spanish have made me the obvious choice for the translation of every kind of company document, from letters to employee handbooks to contracts to process forms to project documentation, etc. I would dare to say that almost 30% of my career-related product over the past 15 years has been the translation of documents of every conceivable kind.
On my own time I frequently translate websites, (either designed by me or by a third party), articles, short stories and other such, relatively light-weight projects. Although, on occasion, I have taken on the challenge of translating contract agreements between parties in separate countries, a task that I was mostly called upon to perform during the years in which I lived in Mexico City.
I was raised in a bicultural, bilingual home. My mother is a native Puerto Rican and my father a native of Arkansas, USA. Neither was fluent in the other’s language, so my brother and I had to be, in both. I grew up in San Juan, Puerto Rico where my schoolmates and personal friends were of equally mixed backgrounds and heritage. Although the island is predominantly a Spanish-speaking culture, the hotel-dominated beaches on which I was privileged to grow up and develop, provided a constantly changing mélange of visiting ephemeral friends whose language and dialects continuously enriched my vocabulary and comprehension.
As a consummate bibliophile, my personal library boasts a wide assortment of classical and contemporary, fiction and non-fiction works which have, (over the years and beyond my youthful, serendipitous linguistic excursions with foreign friends), further expanded my linguistic versatility.
As a free-thinker, my other passions are, of course, the sciences, in a great number of which I am well versed. My special favorites are Physics, Astronomy, Biology, Philosophy, Psychology, Technology, Anthropology, Geology, Paleontology, and Sociology, among others. The order of preference is in constant flux and changes without prior notice. I have as yet not had the privilege of translating works in any of these fields, but I do anxiously look forward to such an opportunity in the future.
Translations have proved to be a unique way to challenge and expand my language prowess. It has enhanced my appreciation of the special perceptions that make us all so different and yet so much alike at the same time. A peculiar appreciation that was first glimpsed within my own multi-cultural upbringing, and has been continuously growing ever since. In many ways translations have not only been professionally rewarding and lucrative for me, but also, personally, intensely satisfying.
