Argentina announces salary increases for military, security forces, and senators
The Argentine government has announced several salary recompositions for public sector employees. For the Armed Forces, an accumulated increase of 12.22% is scheduled between September and December 2026, with the first 6.9% increment taking effect in September. This measure, which includes retirees, is expected to cost over 50 billion pesos monthly.
Federal security forces, including the Gendarmería Nacional, Prefectura Naval Argentina, Policía Federal Argentina, Policía de Seguridad Aeroportuaria, and Servicio Penitenciario Federal, will also receive updates to their basic salaries and various supplements based on risk, location, and responsibility.
In the legislative branch, Argentine senators are set to see their gross monthly salaries exceed 13 million pesos by January 2027. This follows a mechanism where parliamentary salaries are automatically linked to the wage increases of legislative employees.
Regarding social security, ANSES has officialized a 2.11% increase for pensions and family allowances for September. However, the extraordinary 70,000 peso bonus for low-income retirees and non-contributory pensioners will remain unchanged at its current level.
