Overview

• Resolution 139/2025 shifted the Día del Respeto a la Diversidad Cultural from Sunday, Oct. 12, to Friday, Oct. 10, as published in the Boletín Oficial.
• The Friday date is a national holiday, so public administration, banks, and schools close nationwide, and private employers must observe holiday regulations.
• Workers required to clock in on Oct. 10 are entitled to double pay under Argentina’s labor law, while those who do not work receive normal pay.
• A recent decree filled a gap in Law 27.399 by allowing trasladable holidays that fall on Saturdays or Sundays to move to the preceding Friday or following Monday.
• Local asuetos add uneven days off: several Buenos Aires municipalities plan a non-working Monday, Oct. 6; Rosario marks an asueto on Tuesday, Oct. 7; Tolhuin declared a local holiday on Thursday, Oct. 9.
