A judge partially suspended the implementation of a labor reform Argentina's Congress approved on Feb. 27, La Nacion reported on March 30. Unions claimed the law was unconstitutional, and the government said it would appeal the suspension.

The court ruling suspends 82 out of the reform's more than 200 articles and halts the implementation of rules around the classification of platform workers as independent contractors, the elimination of a principle that favors workers in lawsuits in case of doubt and restrictions on strike rights, severance pay, working hours and holidays, among other measures. The bill originally allowed working days of up to 12 hours, reduced severance pay and lowered employer taxes. Unions say the legislation favors private companies, while the government says the reform aims to modernize the country's economy. The Milei administration approved the labor reform in January after expanding its base in Congress in the October 2025 legislative elections.
