The government filed a request asking the Supreme Court to overturn a ruling by a lower court that declared the labor reform included in President Javier Milei’s mega-decree issued in December unconstitutional. In the first days of January, a labor court issued a temporary suspension of the labor reform. On January 30, the Federal Labor Chamber issued a new ruling declaring the labor chapter of the decree unconstitutional. The Federal Labor Chamber’s main reason for declaring the reform unconstitutional was due to the fact that the government used the wrong legislation. That ruling handed down by the Federal Labor Court is the first to issue a comment regarding the fundamentals of the mega-decree’s labor reforms.
