In the Chaco province, Governor Leandro Zdero’s administration presented a 2027 budget project totaling approximately $5.9 trillion pesos, a 33.78% increase over the 2026 budget. Finance Minister Alejandro Abraam noted that state personnel allocations include an 18% salary update based on inflationary projections, though implementation depends on provincial resource evolution and tax collection. The budget also proposes a slight reduction in the state workforce, linking the final number of positions to voluntary retirement schemes. In the Province of Buenos Aires, the government has called for collective bargaining meetings with teacher and state unions to address salary updates. Labor organizations, including ATE and FEGEPPBA, have expressed concern regarding the loss of purchasing power due to inflation and the potential for negotiations to miss the November payroll. Tensions have escalated with announcements of strikes as part of the Federal University March. Negotiations in Buenos Aires have intensified, with Governor Axel Kicillof’s administration scheduling new collective bargaining sessions (paritarias) for October 16. This follows previous meetings where no concrete salary increase proposals were presented. Unions are pressuring for immediate updates to prevent workers from facing a second consecutive month without salary increases. In Entre Ríos, the teachers' union Agmer has also escalated demands, meeting with the president of the Social Work of Entre Ríos (OSER) to address delays in medication delivery for oncology and chronic patients. Agmer noted that the lack of salary improvements for workers is directly impacting the financing of the social work organization.
