Argentine judge suspended labor reforms included in mega-decree which President Javier Miley signed two weeks ago.
The above, after protection provided by the General Confederation of Labor (CGT), the most important trade union center in the South American country.
hourHours later, the government announced it would appeal the court-ordered safeguard and seek a finding of “incompetence in this jurisdiction,” according to a statement from the Treasury Attorney General’s Office.
The decree, consisting of more than 300 measures to deregulate the economy, repeals and modifies labor-related laws such as employment contracts, reasons for termination and compensation, among other topics.
From the moment of its publication, the CGT was vehemently opposed to the text and, following the presentation of a formal bill in line with the ultra-liberal position of Miley, who took office on December 10, declared a national strike at the end of January.
“The precautionary measure is taken to suspend the application of the provisions of Title IV of the Ordinance (…) until a final decision has been rendered on the main issue raised in these proceedings,” said Judge Andrea García Vior of the National Court of Appeal of the Labor Party, in the judgment , passed by the Chamber.
Meanwhile, after the ruling was made public, the CGT said in a statement that “this judgment puts an end to regressive labor reform that is contrary to the interests of workers.”
Miley’s decree entered into force, although it could be repealed by the National Congress if both houses rejected it. The decree and the broad government bill have drawn sharp criticism of the ruling party, which is far from having its own majority in both deputies and senators.
Although the Argentine Congress is usually closed for summer recess at this time, Miley called extraordinary sessions until the end of the month to discuss the bill sent by the government. (Reuters)
