Argentina Domestic Workers Secure Provisional 2.7% Pay Rise, $14,000 Bonus Pending Officialization

The agreement will apply only after ministerial signature followed by publication in the Official Gazette.

Overview

  • The national bargaining body for domestic work (CNTCP) agreed on a total 2.7% increase across November and December, with reports differing on the split between 1.4%/1.3% and 1.5%/1.2%.
  • A non-remunerative ARS 14,000 monthly payment is included for those working more than 16 hours per week in November, December and January.
  • Outlets published provisional minimums by category for November, while the measure lacks full legal force until it appears in the Boletín Oficial.
  • Payroll guidance maintains statutory additions of 1% per year of seniority and a 30% supplement for southern regions where applicable.
  • One report indicates November pay should still reference September scales until the resolution is formalized, underscoring the provisional status of the new values.
