Overview
- Governor Osvaldo Jaldo said the non‑bonificable, one‑time payment will be deposited before Christmas for provincial, municipal and communal employees.
- The province will finish November salaries by December 6, pay the half‑year bonus between December 18 and 20, and complete December wages by January 6.
- Jaldo estimated the holiday bonus at an extra 15 billion pesos, with total payroll disbursements reaching 500 billion pesos over a 40‑day period.
- Officials said the bonus covers the entire public workforce and that Banco Macro will not apply deductions on the bonus or the half‑year payment.
- In contrast, Santiago del Estero maintains a three‑installment plan totaling 2.1 million pesos with a final 700,000‑peso payment due December 23, while Jujuy, Comodoro Rivadavia, Formosa, Luján and Lincoln move with smaller payouts or ongoing demands.
