This obligation should be fulfilled without any request or reminder from the employee. If the employer fails to do so, the employee has the right to pursue payment of the benefits due, along with default interest. This claim is subject to a statute of limitations of three years from the date the claim became due. This means that the employee has three years from the date of termination of the employment contract to demand payment of the monetary equivalent and default interest from their former employer.
