Tucumán communes face scrutiny over municipal payroll data

Leaked payroll and employee lists from several Tucumán communes have raised questions regarding staffing levels and public spending. In Los Sosas, records indicate 723 employees against a reported population of 799 inhabitants, suggesting a ratio of approximately 90 employees per 100 residents.

While the data does not provide direct evidence of corruption or non-performing staff, the high number of municipal workers in areas like Los Sosas and Villa Padre Monti has prompted calls for transparency. Local authorities, including communal delegate José ‘Pepilo’ Albarracín, face demands for documentation to clarify the specific tasks performed by employees and the methods used to monitor their work.
