Manuel Adorni, a representative of the presidential administration, noted that the remaining contracts will be subject to 90-day verification.

Argentine President Javier Milei signed a decree that takes into account the exceptions. According to the document, certain employees who were hired according to the quota established by law or are considered indispensable for work will be able to keep their jobs.

Milei took office as President of Argentina on December 10th. In his first speech as Head of State, he described the situation in the country as critical and stressed the importance of applying shock measures in the economy.
