translated from Spanish: Trade Employee’s Day was spent by Monday, September 28

Trade employees have their day set on September 26th commemorating “Trade Employee’s Day”. but because this year falls on a Saturday, an agreement was made between the Argentine Federation of Employees of Shops and Services and the business chambers of the sector that it moves two days to celebrate it on Monday, September 28, ensuring that everyone has their day of rest. On the other hand, from the entity they emphasized that this celebration does not include those premises or shops that are attended by their owners, or with those workers who in full consent decide that day to work. In addition, the ACC explained that while “commercial workers will or will not have the option of providing their labour services, during this on Monday, September 28, with all the effects and scope of Law 26.541, which assimilates this commemoration with the rest of the other national holidays, in which the granting of a compensatory rest is not required when working but the payment of an equivalent of 100%”. They also noted that: “If not worked, the employee has rest that day, but that will not vary his monthly remuneration. Therefore, in matters of wages, compliance with the provisions of the current rules must be enforced, and the day in question could not be granted as a compensatory franc for weekly rest”. Finally, they noted that “the position to be taken in this regard is at the discretion of employers and their workers, falling within the ccT 130/75”.
