Argentine justice provisionally suspends Javier Milei’s labor reform

The National Chamber of Labor Appeals of Argentina today temporarily suspended the labor reform of the decree of necessity and urgency (DNU), signed by the Argentine president, Javier Milei, on the 20th to advance a broad deregulation of the economy.

Judges Andrea García Vior and Alejandro Sudera issued a precautionary measure this Wednesday that annulled the changes in labor matters that had come into effect on December 29.

Last week, the Peronist-inspired National Confederation of Labor (CGT) carried out a mobilization against the DNU and also asked the Judiciary to stop the labor changes that the Government wanted to impose by decree. Likewise, the governor of La Rioja, Ricardo Quintela, asked the Supreme Court to declare the decree unconstitutional.
