Annual leave is separate from public holidays, which are also paid and do not reduce the vacation balance.<br data-start=\"3406\" data-end=\"3409\" \/>The purpose of annual leave is to give employees uninterrupted rest while ensuring a stable income. Because of this, employers need clear tracking systems to avoid non-compliance. Vacation is considered a mandatory benefit, and companies cannot replace it with compensation during employment. Understanding these rules helps employers plan staffing needs and set accurate budgets. It also supports positive employee experience, especially for teams distributed across Latin America.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5c1a7a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f5c1a7a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Accrual Rules for PTO in Colombia<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e80eeb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7e80eeb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Annual leave accrues at <strong data-start=\"3958\" data-end=\"3981\">1.25 days per month<\/strong>, which totals fifteen business days after a full year.
