StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCETransport and public services face cancellations as lower house passes labor bill 135–115; measure heads back to Senate amid reported clashes
Argentine unions staged a 24-hour general strike as the lower house passed a labor reform bill 135–115 and sent it back to the Senate for a final vote. The government backs the overhaul, which would limit strike rights, extend probation periods, and ease dismissals, while unions say it rolls back long-standing protections. Transport and public services were widely disrupted, with dozens of flights canceled and train stations largely empty. France 24 reported clashes near Congress and about a dozen arrests during what was the fourth general strike of President Javier Milei’s term.
Elsewhere in Latin America, auto parts workers have occupied factories across northern Mexico after the shutdown of six First Brands maquiladora plants and the firing of more than 4,000 workers. They are holding facilities to prevent the removal of machinery and the permanent loss of jobs. The simultaneous mass stoppage in Argentina and workplace occupations in Mexico highlight ongoing labor mobilization over employment security and labor rules in the region.
Parallel labor actions in Argentina and Mexico show cross-sector impacts, from halted transport to disrupted manufacturing, with regional implications for employment and supply chains.
