For employees in Argentina, guaranteed leave depends on the employee’s years of service at the company.
The minimum and continued period of paid annual vacations employees are entitled to are:
Employers may also choose to extend the vacations of their employees.
Employers must also pay salary and other benefits to the employee during annual leave. This payment is calculated by dividing the salary by 25 and multiplying it by the number of days of holiday entitlement. Payment must be made in advance, and leave must begin on a Monday.
All employees are entitled to 15 paid public holidays, plus a few “bridge holidays” added by the Argentine government each year. The amount of holiday entitlement increases with the length of continuous employment, up to a maximum of 5 weeks or 35 days.
Salaried employees in Australia are entitled to four weeks of paid annual leave each year. Shift workers receive an additional week of paid leave, for a total of five weeks per year.
Employees who give birth in Argentina are entitled to 90 days of leave, paid at 100% salary by the government. This leave can be taken half before the due date and half after, though some employees choose to take their leave unevenly (e.g., 30 days prior to the due date and 60 days after). The employee who gives birth may request additional unpaid leave of up to six months.
Argentina provides two days of paid paternity leave, paid at 100% salary by the government.
Employees in Argentina are entitled to sick leave depending on years of service at the company. Sick leave changes depending on whether the condition is a work-related illness or injury.
If an employee remains ill after 12 months of leave, the employer may stop making payments but is still required to retain the employee for an additional 12 months. Beyond that timeframe, the employer and employee must discuss long-term disability arrangements or severance pay, depending on the work required and the nature of the disability.
Employers in Argentina must provide written notice to terminate an employee. Reasons for termination may include employee conduct, economic factors, or inability to perform the work required. The employer may not modify the reason for termination after the fact, so it is important to provide accurate information throughout the termination process.
Terminations in Argentina can be complicated. Different situations and justifications for termination can have significant effects on factors such as severance pay.
Notice periods for termination in Argentina depend on how long the employee has worked for the company.
In lieu of notice, Argentine employers may pay employees for the same number of days as the notice period. For example, a company in Argentina could terminate an employee with 10 years of service immediately as long as the company paid the employee two months’ wages, in addition to any required severance pay.
Severance pay in Argentina depends on the tenure of the employee and the conditions of dismissal. Employees terminated without cause are entitled to several forms of severance pay, including:
By law probation period of new permanent employees is 3 months. We advise against using fixed term agreements. An extraordinary requirement is required by law in order to duly justify a fixed term contract. Continuous use of such fixed term contracts or in excess of legal requirements will automatically convert it into a permanent labor contract. No probation period is required for these fixed term agreements.
