José González, leader of the Idaan workers in Colón, reported that during a meeting they were informed that the bonus was not published in the Official Gazette, so they withdrew and returned to their duties. He indicated that since the bonus was not in the Official Gazette, a legal process would have to be followed, which includes a series of procedures. He added that all processes are currently underway, and it is understood that it has already been approved and published in the Official Gazette. Conversations are ongoing with the Ministry of Economy and Finance, as well as the Comptroller's Office, to obtain a response. At the end of last year, employees of this entity paralyzed their activities demanding the payment of the bonus, a conquest achieved by these public servants. González stressed that if a satisfactory response is not achieved, the necessary administrative appeals will continue to be filed. Officials from the National Institute of Aqueducts and Sewers (Idaan) are managing their 2025 bonus before national authorities.
