Two key parities close: Commerce and the Uocra agreed to average increases of 20% for three months

Both amounts will be applied in three monthly installments. INDEC released this Friday that inflation was 7.7% in March and accumulates 21.7% in the first quarter of the year.


 At the same time that INDEC released the

7.7% inflation rate registered in March

, accumulating 21.7% in the first quarter of the year, two of the most important associations of private activity,

Commerce and Uocra

, which group close to 1.6 million workers, announced the closure of their respective joint ventures that

set average increases of 20%

only for a period of

three months

.

The Trade

Employees Union

, led by Armando Cavalieri, signed this Friday with the representatives of the business chambers of the sector a

salary increase of 19.5% for the April-June quarter

that will be implemented in

three equal non-cumulative tranches of 6, 5%

and will bring the

basic salary of the activity to $220,000

, once the entire increase is completed.

In turn, the

Construction Workers' Union

, the union led by Gerardo Martínez, agreed with the Construction Chamber on a first quarterly recomposition within the framework of the sectoral parity that will

reach 22%

and will also be implemented in

three installments

: 10 % from April, 8% in May and the remaining 4% with June salaries.

In both negotiations, business and union representatives will meet again in June to discuss the salary increase that will be applied for the rest of the year.

The agreements closed in Commerce and the construction industry replicate the scheme consecrated a couple of weeks ago by the

UOM union

in the negotiation of the metallurgical industry, where a staggered salary increase of 18.8% was established for a period of three months, a model that shows the concern of the unions to agree short-term parities in order to prevent salaries from being delayed in the face of accelerating inflation.
