The Government is Already Advancing in the Strategy to Face the Judicialization of Labor Reform

The Argentine government is preparing a strategy to address anticipated judicial challenges to the recent labor reform that has passed the Senate.

The Argentine government, led from the Casa Rosada, is actively strategizing to counter the expected judicialization of a significant labor reform, which recently received partial approval in the Senate. Sources from the administration suggest that this reform will face legal challenges from various stakeholders, particularly from the national labor courts and trade unions, as it includes provisions that are contentious and likely to provoke litigation.

The government acknowledges that the labor judiciary is expected to be the first to raise objections against aspects of the reform, especially those related to the transfer of certain labor responsibilities to the City of Buenos Aires as part of the legislative changes. The sources indicate that these anticipated challenges are not merely speculative but rather seen as an imminent reality that necessitates a robust governmental response to maintain the reform's integrity and implementation timeline.

As the labor reform is set to be debated in the Chamber of Deputies shortly, the administration is keenly aware of the pressure from various labor groups who oppose parts of the reform. By preparing a comprehensive legal strategy, the government aims to mitigate potential disruptions caused by judicial actions and ensure that the labor reform is enacted as planned, signaling its commitment to advancing economic and labor market efficiencies in Argentina.
