Colombian law requires that a full-time position work for at least eight (8) hours per day. The eight hours are distributed in two sections with a break for lunch in between. This break does not count as part of the eight working hours. There are other work hours considered in the internal work regulations depending on your positions.

The official work day for office and support staff begins at 7:00 a.m. and ends at 4:30 p.m. with a one-hour lunch period. This represents a work day of exactly 8.5 hours not counting the lunch break. With this general outline of work hours, please note that some offices open early and/or close late, so in some cases as determined by the direct area supervisor, staff members might start earlier or end later depending on office needs.

Your direct supervisors will be informing the HR Department in the event that your hours vary from the 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. normal schedule, and fall within the 46 hour flexible weekly schedule.
