Bogota, Mar 16 (Prensa Latina) Mobilizations in Bogota, Medellin, Cali, Barranquilla, Bucaramanga and Pereira will be conducted on Thursday in support to the labor reform proposed by government.

In the morning, demonstrators will gather at the National Park in Bogota to later head the Plaza de Nuñez, at the Palacio de Nariño.

The labor reform to be submitted to Congress addresses 10 key points: one of them gives priority to indefinite term contracts.

Other important aspects are that it differentiates day-and-night working day (from 06:00 a.m. to 18:00 p.m.) as well as 100% payment of the Sunday surcharge.

The new reform seeks to crack down on violence and harassment in the workplace, as well as to strengthen protection and promotion to the right to union association.
