Therefore, 15% is calculated on the number of people working in the offices and not on the total number of employees of the company, with a minimum presence of three (3) persons, if the employer so wishes, and a maximum of 20 people.

For example:

1. In the food industry with a total staff of 100 people, with the following separation:

75 people in product production and distribution: ALL EMPLOYEES ARE ENTITLED TO WORK

25 staff in the offices (Accounting, Marketing, Administration, Reception, etc.): 15% OF THE OFFICE PERSONNEL SHOULD WORK , IE. RIGHT TO WORK 4 PERSONS

2. In a company connected to the construction industry, such as the sale of sanitary ware with a total number of employees of 30 people.

20 people in the Warehouse, distribution and service of professionals in the sector: ALL EMPLOYEES ARE ENTITLED TO WORK

10 staff in the offices (Accounting, Administration, Reception, showroom, etc.): 15% OF THE OFFICE PERSONNEL SHOULD WORK, WITH MINIMUM PRESENCE OF THE 3 EMPLOYEES,
