In March 2026, Argentina's domestic workers benefit from a 1.5% salary increase, as per the latest wage agreement reached for this sector. This adjustment affects all categories of workers, regardless of whether they live in or out of their employers' homes. The minimum official hourly wage can be recalculated based on February's rates to provide clarity for employers and workers alike.

Alongside this salary increase, a one-time bonus is introduced for the months of February and March, which varies depending on how many hours employees work each week. This additional payment aims to provide extra support to domestic workers during this period. The bonus is not factored into the regular wages, making it a separate incentive that considers the varying workload among domestic staff.

These changes reflect ongoing negotiations and adjustments within Argentina's labor market, particularly for domestic workers, who often face challenges in securing fair pay and conditions. The adjustments not only recognize the importance of the work done by these individuals but also aim to promote better labor standards in this often-overlooked sector.
