Argentina Finalizes Year-End Domestic Worker Pay: 1.3% December Rise, $14,000 Bonus Continues

December payslips include the half‑year SAC, with the supplement excluded from its calculation.

Overview

  • CNTCP’s bimonthly adjustment totals 2.7%, applied as 1.4% in November and 1.3% in December, closing the 2025 paritary cycle.
  • The non‑remunerative $14,000 monthly supplement is paid in November, December and January to staff working more than 16 hours per week, and it must be itemized separately on paystubs as “Asignación no remunerativa – acuerdo CNTCP”.
  • Employers calculate the SAC as half of the highest monthly remunerative pay from July to December, excluding the $14,000 supplement and including applicable remunerative add‑ons.
  • Updated December legal minimums by category are in force, with statutory complements of 1% per year of service for antigüedad and a 30% zona desfavorable in the designated southern jurisdictions.
  • Registration of domestic personnel through the ARCA digital platform remains mandatory, and the changes are reported to affect more than 1.3 million workers nationwide.
