Argentina Domestic Workers Reach Provisional 2.7% Raise With $14,000 Extra Pending Approval

The sector’s wage panel agreed on a split November–December increase and non‑remunerative payments that will only apply once formally signed and published.

Overview

  • Negotiators at the CNTCP meeting on November 7, convened by Resolution 2/2025, outlined a 2.7% total adjustment split as 1.4% for November and 1.3% for December.
  • The accord adds a non‑remunerative $14,000 monthly payment for November, December and January for workers exceeding 16 hours per week, according to reports.
  • The agreement remains provisional until signed by all parties and ratified by the Ministry of Capital Humano, so legally binding scales have not yet changed.
  • Until a new resolution is published, employers must apply the currently in‑force minimums for November pay and compute the December aguinaldo on gross remunerative earnings.
  • About 1.3 million domestic workers are affected, with existing supplements such as 1% per year of seniority and a 30% ‘zona desfavorable’ add‑on continuing to apply.
