I had a worker who was working for me for about 10 months. In February (the 10th month) we made arrangements under consideration that he could not keep working for me and that he would send a substitute worker (his brother) to work for me instead. The brother (second guy) kept working for me same job hours and money; then in May the first guy said he wanted back to work. I told him that he and his brother would have to work out who would be working, that I really did not care which of the two would be coming to work, as long as one of them was working. It ended up that the brother (second guy) kept working.
Now at the end of June the second guy working for me says he will not be able to work for me anymore because he got a better job. I tell him to tell his brother (first guy) to come back working if he wants. The first guy sends a message that he will not be working for me because it's too little money.
So the second guy stops working in prejudice of my company at the end of June (but I am OK with that because he gave me notice) and the first guy says he will not be working unless I give him more money (which I will not).
Now the first guy (that originally started to work for me and later handed the job over to his younger brother) keeps bugging me about liquidation (cesantia).
This first guy also has this "unique" idea that the Xmas bonus was to be a double the wage (in addition to December wages), which I paid him 3/4 of month's worth of wages as Xmas bonus (he started to work in april, so april-december it's 9 months, 9/12 it's 3/4 of month's wages). So he claims I shorted him on Xmas bonus.
My question is:
DO I ENTER IN RESPONSIBILITY WITH HIM (THE FIRST GUY) (under the labor law) MEANING PAYING CESANTIA (LIQUIDATION) considering the turn of events? (him handing the job over to his brother, later when offered the work back after the brother quit saying he won't be back for work until wage increase, and then neither of the two not showing up for work for almost a month).
