The processes of remuneration reimbursements in Peru constitute labor actions aimed at recovering unreceived payments —such as overtime, family allowance, vacation pay, bonuses or other remunerative concepts— as well as differences generated by errors in the settlement of social benefits or undue reductions in salary.

The basis for these actions is found in our Constitution, which recognizes the right to fair and sufficient remuneration, guaranteeing the protection of the worker's income against arbitrary acts of the employer.

Among the most frequent causes are the unilateral reduction of remuneration—considered an act of hostility when there is no valid agreement—, the non-payment of overtime, unpaid bonuses, or incorrect calculations of social benefits. It should be noted that a reduction in remuneration is only valid when there is an express individual agreement or a collective agreement based on objective economic reasons, without affecting previously acquired rights.

The worker has a statute of limitations of four years, calculated from the day after the termination of the employment relationship, to initiate the corresponding actions.
