We have long been saying that we do not deny the changes in the world of work. We believe that the reform must be discussed only if it leads to more jobs and decent work, he stated regarding the project that the government presented to the Senate last month. He added that 'we need to discuss how we provide jobs under the new labor system, but with rights and coverage.' 'We say a resounding no to this law because it is a law that goes against the rights and dignity of workers,' insisted Argüello in statements to El Destape Radio. For the co-secretary of the CGT, 'this law as presented makes no sense' because 'it will not create more jobs' and on the contrary 'it will further precarious workers.' As anticipated by the Argentine News Agency, the leadership of the central labor unions will meet next week with a new batch of governors. 'As long as it is not returning to slavery, we are willing to discuss the law,' he emphasized, and insisted that 'as presented, the law is totally judicializable.' 'If they do not listen to us, we will be in the streets protesting,' warned Argüello about the position that the labor movement will take if the government advances in Congress without first discussing it with the CGT. Buenos Aires, January 14 (NA) - The co-secretary of the CGT, Octavio Argüello, assured this Wednesday that from the central labor union they are 'speaking with governors so that they understand' that the labor reform promoted by the government of Javier Milei 'will not create more jobs and takes rights away from workers.' The union leader highlighted that 'it is a law that must be discussed very deeply.'
