Buenos Aires province gov’t and teachers wage talks to continue on Monday

Negotiations between the Buenos Aires province Government and teacher unions will continue on Monday, following a meeting held at the the Public Sector’s Collective Bargaining Under-Secretariat in La Plata.

Yesterday, BA province Governor Daniel Scioli expressed to be confident.

“I’m sure we’ll be able to reach an agreement. I just want to ask teacher for a little comprehension so that we can find a monetary solution.”

Teachers led a 48 hours national strike in demand of a minimum wage of 3,100 pesos, after the provincial government refused to pay such amount and counter offered 2,860 pesos.
