Labor Laws in Argentina Labor Laws in Argentina stem from the National Constitution and Labor Code as well as other statutes and regulations. The Constitution protects the right of people to work, form unions, and bargain collectively.

The Labor Code sets forth rules and regulations governing hiring, firing, wages, hours—and also working conditions. Occupational safety and health is also addressed in various statutes and regulations. Several other statutes and regulations provide for occupational safety, workers' compensation; pensions; maternity leave—even paid vacation time.

Employment Contracts Employment contracts can be either for an unlimited period or for a fixed term, but they must be in writing and cannot be for more than 5 years.

Employee Probation Period The probationary period is the first 3 months of employment but can be terminated at any time.

During this period, the employee may be discharged without just cause and no further payments with 15 days' notice.

Maternity Leave Argentina Female employees are entitled to a special leave of absence for maternity including 45 days before and 45 days after childbirth.

During maternity leave, employees are entitled to certain family allowances and other fringe benefits.

Paternity Leave Argentina Male employees are allowed 2 days of paid paternity leave after the birth of a child.

Sick Leave in Argentina If the employee has an illness or accident that is not work-related, they are entitled to: up to 3 months’ paid leave if they have worked for an employer for less than 5 continuous years up to 6 months’ paid leave if they have worked for an employer for more than 5 continuous years.

If the accident, injury or illness is related to work performed for the employer, treatment costs, rehabilitation, and sick pay are covered for up to 12 months by compulsory employment risk insurance.

Working Hours in Argentina Labor laws in Argentina state that the maximum permitted workweek is 8 hours per day or 48 hours per week.

Overtime in Argentina Overtime must not exceed 30 hours a month and 200 hours a year, unless authorized by the relevant labor authorities. The overtime rate is 50% for work from Monday through 1 PM on Saturday. For work completed beyond that time and on public holidays, the overtime rate is 100%.

Workers who are required to perform their duties during the rest period or on public holidays must be paid at a rate of 100% on top of their normal salary.

Termination of Employment in Argentina In Argentina, an employer can terminate the employment contract with just cause or without just cause. The grounds for termination include: worker's initiative worker's conduct mutual agreement death bankruptcy retirement Employers can terminate employment at any time without justified cause, subject to payment of severance compensation provided by labor laws. Employees on a trial period—during their first three months of employment—are not entitled to severance pay unless they have received prior notice (15 days).

The employer can dismiss an employee with justified cause in the event of failure of the employee to fulfill his obligations which do not consent to continuation of employment relationship.

Fair Dismissal Practices The Argentine labor laws do not list specific breaches that constitute cause for dismissal. Instead, it is up to the employer to determine whether or not an employee's actions are grounds for dismissal. This can be done on a case-by-case basis, but the employer has the burden of proof.

An employee who feels that he or she has been unjustly dismissed has the right to challenge his or her dismissal in court. In order for a Labor Court to rule in favor of the employee, the court must first decide if there was just cause for dismissal by examining any applicable disciplinary sanctions against the employee and considering his or her seniority and place in the company hierarchy.

The Labor Courts are very restrictive when it comes to deciding whether or not an employer had just cause for dismissing an employee; as such, they usually analyze whether or not there have been previous disciplinary sanctions against the employee provided by labor laws, how long he or she has worked at this company, and what position he or she holds within said company in order to make their decision.

Finally, employment can terminate due to retirement at age 65 when one receives their government pension plan; no severance compensation is payable in this case either (although some companies may offer it as part of their benefits package).

Notice Period in Argentina For indefinite term employment contracts, employers may dismiss an employee at any time upon giving the employee: Prior notice of 15 days if the employment contract is terminated during the trial 1 month if the period of service is greater than the trial period but less than 5 years 2 months (if the period of service is greater than 5 years).

This notice can be substituted with a salary payment equivalent to the period of prior notice.

Severance in Argentina If you're an employer in Argentina, you may be wondering what the rules are around severance pay. Here's a quick overview: Employers are required to make severance payments to the employee based on the employee’s highest ordinary monthly salary earned during the previous year of employment or full term of service, if shorter than one year.

With certain limits, employers must pay the employee one month’s salary for each year of employment or period worked

in excess of three months for which the employee worked for such employer.

If an employee is dismissed for gross misconduct, no severance payment or prior notice is required; however, the burden of proof lies with the employer to show that gross misconduct occurred.

Retirement in Argentina Retirement is one of the many benefits that the Argentinian social insurance system provides to its citizens. Anyone who lives in Argentina and works for a company or as self-employed, is able to participate in the social insurance system. To qualify for retirement, one must 65 for men and 60 for women with at least 30 years of service. Alternatively, an insured person can substitute two years of age after the retirement age for one year of missing contributions.

Payroll In Argentina Tax Returns There are a few key things to know about filing taxes in Argentina.

First, there are no extensions allowed for filing tax returns. This means that you need to make sure your taxes are filed on time, or you could face penalties. Second, both national and foreign employees must file an income and personal assets tax return if their gross compensation exceeds ARS1,500,000 per year.

In Argentina, individual taxpayers are required to file a tax return each year by June 30. Because the tax year for individual taxpayers is the calendar year, tax returns must be filed between 11 June and 13 June (depending on the taxpayer’s registration number) of the following year unless the taxpayer’s only income is from employee compensation.

Self-employed Tax Filings Argentina treats you as self-employed if you have non-wage income, including self-employment. If you have a business or profession (or if you are retired or have investments), you must pay taxes on your net earnings. You must register with the tax bureau before starting your enterprise. You must make advance tax payments bi-monthly from August to April, based on the previous year's tax.

Taxes for Residents and Nonresidents The withholding system for payments to resident individuals ensures that taxes are paid in a timely manner. The system also respects the taxpayers' right to advance notice of their taxes and informs them of their tax obligations. Any withholding made by the employer is treated as an advance payment. Advance payments are also required for purposes of the personal assets tax.

Nonresidents subject to the 35% withholding tax are not required to file tax returns as long as they do not have any other income subject to Argentine tax. If a nonresident has income from an Argentine source, he or she must declare that income along with their worldwide income.

Global Expansion’s EOR and international PEO solution can help you run payroll in Argentina with ease. In just a few clicks, your employees will be onboarded and enrolled into our payroll system.

Additionally, we can invoice for clients locally, meaning we can enroll any new hire quickly and efficiently, whether they're an expatriate or a local national.
