Overview
- ONPE, in guidance published Thursday, says designated polling‑station members are entitled to one paid day off after the April 12 election, which often runs late due to vote counting.
- Those selected must complete ONPE’s online training at capacitate.onpe.gob.pe, then choose how to receive the S/165 compensation through the official platforms.
- To access the day off and the payment, members need the ONPE participation certificate issued after election day and must present it to their employer.
- Employers that refuse the mandatory rest face administrative sanctions, and affected workers should file complaints with the labor inspector SUNAFIL.
- Skipping the duty as a member of mesa carries a S/275 fine and means losing ONPE benefits, including the S/165 payment and the paid rest.
