AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Labor Reform: Costa Rican lawmakers approved a “4×3” work schedule that would allow up to 12-hour days for four days a week, but they unanimously moved to exclude public sector employees—keeping the 12-hour option limited to certain private-sector activities. Tourism Safety: Poás Volcano National Park remains open after an early-morning eruption, but visitor caps were cut to 1,064 per day, with helmet rules and tighter limits at the crater viewpoint. Wildlife Protection: Lawmakers approved regulations requiring wildlife crossings for roads that disrupt animal connectivity, with oversight by the National Environmental Technical Secretariat and possible retrofits for existing roads. Environment & Science: Researchers documented a rare golden ray (xanthism) off Guanacaste, and Osa Conservation moved 13 white-lipped peccaries back to Piedras Blancas National Park after they were wiped out by hunters. Culture: Limón’s Grand Gala Parade and Puerto Viejo’s Wolaba Parade are set to spotlight Afro-descendant heritage as Costa Rica marks Black Person’s Day on Aug. 31. Public Security: President Laura Fernández ordered increased police deployment in Cartago amid violence concerns, criticizing the judiciary and citing fears voiced by residents.
