The agreement is one step. The provincial conductions of the ATE and UPCN guilds were in accordance with the proposal to increase for the central administration workers that formulated this Wednesday morning, in the Joint Meeting, the government of Maximiliano Pullaro: 8 percent in total for the second quarter of the year, with a guaranteed minimum of 75 thousand pesos for the lowest categories and compensation for those with higher salaries whose salaries grew less than inflation in the first quarter.
The proposed increase is staggered as follows: 3 percent in April, 2.6 in May and 2.4 in June. In another meeting, scheduled for 13, they were going to make an offer, which is estimated to be similar, to the teaching unions.

“It is what we could achieve after several weeks of negotiation. province is unmarked from the nation pattern that did not authorize increases of more than 1%,” said UPCN head, Jorge Molina.
-For his part, Marcelo Delfor, representative of ATE stressed that in technical meetings the claim of intermediate categories, 4 and 5 will be addressed as “priority”, which claimed salary equalization, together with situations such as school assistants and nurses.
The unionists considered important that a guaranteed minimum of 75 thousand pesos has been established for those who earn less, as well as compensation for major salaries whose rise was below inflation in the first quarter.
