As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, accruals and estimations include the estimated balance of the current portion of the long term provisions (see note 21). Labor related provisions include a profit-sharing program for both management and non-management staff. For members of management, profit-sharing is based on a combination of the Company’s performance as a whole and the achievement of individual goals. Profit-sharing for non-management employees is based solely on the Company’s performance. The accrual at year-end represents the amount expensed for the current year, which is expected to be settled within 12 months.
