In addition, he stressed that the unions valued his arrival at the Buenos Aires Labor portfolio: “There is satisfaction on the part of the trade union organizations. I am a militant as a kid, I was a factory delegate at the age of 19, in 1984. They see a comrade at the head of the labor portfolio.”

On the increase for workers of the provincial state, he highlighted: “We don’t have a specific date. When the governor, the Ministry and the unions sit at a table, we have a clear and concise conception that we are all compañeros and compañeras. It is not a parity like the ones I was used to in the private sector. The province is making a great effort to reach agreements with the union organizations. Beginning in October we will be sitting with the companions.”

“The governor’s effort is remarkable considering the inflationary issues and the economic issue. In some way, there is a process of tension and I see that the inflationary issue will decrease,” Correa said, highlighting the role of the Buenos Aires president Axel Kicillof and added: “We have to make a strong effort to financially compensate the workers not only of the state but also from the private sector.

“That situation must be improved, it is necessary. As a Peronist militant, I see in the neighborhood where I live, but also in the industry, that jobs are gradually increasing. There is work, but we need wages to gradually improve. The national State is working on that and we have to continue down that path.”

Regarding the redistribution of income, he highlighted: “Our maximum target is 50-50. Today we are at almost 60-40. We still have to travel that path and I dream that we will achieve it.”
