Lo que deben pagar los trabajadores independientes por salud y pensión en 2026 con el nuevo salario mínimo
El aumento del salario mínimo anunciado este 29 de diciembre por el presidente Gustavo Petro dejó en vilo a buena parte de la economía colombiana.

TL;DR
- The minimum wage in Colombia has been increased to $1,750,905, and the transport subsidy to $249,095.
- This increase will directly affect independent workers and those on service contracts, impacting their social security contributions.
- The minimum wage defines the base for independent workers' contributions to health and pension, with a prohibition on contributions below the legal minimum wage.
- For an independent worker earning the new minimum wage, the monthly contribution for health and pension will increase, totaling approximately $499,008.
