Buenos Aires teacher unions demand urgent salary negotiations

Teacher unions in the Province of Buenos Aires, organized under the Frente de Unidad Docente Bonaerense (FUDB), have formally requested the provincial government to reopen salary negotiations. The request, directed to Labor Minister Walter Correa, follows the release of August inflation data, which stood at 1.7%.

The unions, including AMET, FEB, SADOP, Suteba, and Udocba, seek to protect the purchasing power of educators. A previous agreement provided a cumulative 7% increase, split into 5% for July and 2% for August, which included a provision for review in September.

Beyond wages, the FUDB is demanding discussions on teacher safety regarding acts of violence, the impact of declining birth rates on school enrollment, and the defense of the IPS pension regime and IOMA health benefits.
