Domestic Workers’ November Pay Anchored to UPACP Minimums as Talks Remain Unresolved

Employers must use the UPACP grid as the legal floor for November payrolls.

Overview

  • With no new paritaria closed, November payrolls reference the latest UPACP rates, including $3,052.99 per hour with retiro and $3,293.99 without for workers under 24 hours a week.
  • For monthly arrangements of 24 hours or more, the reference salaries are $374,541.36 with retiro and $416,485.63 without, applied proportionally to hours worked.
  • The October category grid sets the minimums across roles, such as supervisors at $3,683.21 per hour with retiro and general tasks at $3,052.99 with retiro.
  • Until a new agreement is signed, the Labor Ministry’s official minimum hourly by category remains the binding benchmark for compliance.
  • Household employers must register workers in ARCA, issue payslips with mandatory contributions, and apply a 30% zone differential in designated provinces and the Partido de Patagones.
