Employment Types and Agreements in Chile

Is it necessary for the employment agreement to be bilingual with Spanish taking precedence in Chile?

Our employment agreement in Chile is drafted in both English and Spanish, with both versions presented side by side in a single document.

Can seniority be recognized in employment agreements in Chile? If so, in what ways and how can this be reflected in employment agreements?

In Chile, seniority can be recognized in employment agreements by providing a bonus payable upon the unilateral termination of employment. This bonus serves to account for severance related to previous tenure. However, it is important to note that a prior hiring date cannot be set in the employment agreement.
