# #CostaRica 🇨🇷 #LaborAlertBDS: Father’s Day is NOT a holiday in Costa Rica

![Alertas y SQ 2020_Mesa de trabajo 1 copia 4](https://publicaciones.bdsasesores.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Alertas%20y%20SQ%202020_Mesa%20de%20trabajo%201%20copia%204.png?width=928&name=Alertas%20y%20SQ%202020_Mesa%20de%20trabajo%201%20copia%204.png)

 

Next June 21th is not a holiday in Costa Rica, at least not yet.

 

The truth is that there is a bill being discussed at the Legislative Assembly intended to assign Father’s Day with the same features as Mother’s Day. If this happens, Father’s Day would be a mandatory pay holiday; for the time being, however, there is NO obligation by the employer in this connection.  
   
Father’s Day in Costa Rica is commemorated every year on the third Sunday of June.
