Is there a statutory probationary period in Argentina and can it be extended or removed? Can the probationary period differ for various job titles or employment agreement types in Argentina?
In Argentina, the statutory probationary period for an indefinite employment agreement is typically up to 3 months. However, certain conditions may allow for adjustments:
- For companies with 6 to 100 workers, a collective bargaining agreement can extend the probationary period to 8 months.
- For companies with up to 5 workers, it can be extended to 1 year if specified by a collective bargaining agreement.
The probationary period does not differ based on job titles or types of employment agreements but may vary according to the company's size and applicable collective bargaining agreements.
