The suspension of the employment relationship is a legal concept that is necessarily causal and temporary, and being properly a contingency of the employment contract, it can occur predictably or unpredictably.

Therefore, after analyzing the main characteristics of work suspension: its causality and temporality, we will determine whether, in the case of the causal overlap of work suspension, the validity of the effects of the causes that generate the suspension of work and the legal effects on the employment relationship could be deferred or modified given the overlap of causes that generate both imperfect and perfect suspension of work simultaneously.
