Peru’s labor laws offer strong employee protections, so terminations need to be handled carefully. Justworks makes it easier, offering expert guidance to help you navigate the process while you stay focused on running your business.
Before terminating an employee, employers set a three month probationary period. After the probationary period, employees are protected from being fired without a valid reason.
