Buenos Aires — In 2023, Argentina closed December with annual inflation higher than 212%, a situation that erodes the purchasing power of salaries, particularly of those who earn the least and spend the most on consumption. Up to the top, Since the inauguration of the new Government, the Council of the Minimum Living and Mobile Wage (SMVM) , therefore, the erosion of this concept continues to advance.
The last update of the SMVM occurred on December 1, when that salary floor was set at $156,000, a figure very outdated with the monthly inflation of 25.5% in the Country Email List last month of the year and around 20% expected in January. That amount is equivalent this Tuesday, January 30, to US$ 127.35 per blue dollar. How are the negotiations going? “We are going to call the Council of the Minimum Living and Mobile Wage (SMVM) possibly in the first days of January, ” declared the Secretary of Labor of the Nation, Omar Yasín in an interview given to the newspaper Clarín, on.
The call never arrived. The relationship between the unions and the Government for salaries The tension became tense after the announcement of the national strike, which took place on J and there does not seem to be a rapprochement between the parties. Some media speculated that the call would be given at the end of this month, but, until the morning of January 30, no progress had been observed.
Now comes a stage where we are going to demand that the Living and Mobile Wage Council be convened because we believe that the adjustment should be compensated,” said the general secretary of the General Confederation of Labor ( CGT ), Héctor Daer, on January 25. . However, his exhortation had no response from the other side. In December, the Total Basic Basket, which measures the poverty line for a family of four members (two adults and two children), stood at $495,798. That is to say, at that time a couple in which both members worked in a formal framework but earned the minimum was very far from covering basic needs.
Increasingly less referential In general, it is not common for a formal worker to earn the Minimum Living and Mobile Wage: the agreed salaries are usually above that line. However, this institution serves to provide minimal protection to workers. However, CTA sources indicated months ago to this medium that there are some workers who earn below that minimum, as happens to some municipal and, to a lesser extent, provincial employees.
