What are the Severance Pay requirements in Argentina?

In Argentina, if an employee is terminated without just cause, they are entitled to severance pay (indemnización por despido sin causa). The calculation is as follows:
  • One month’s salary for each year of service, or a fraction thereof exceeding 3 months
  • The salary used for this calculation is the highest monthly salary the employee earned in the last year


If an employee is dismissed for just cause or voluntarily resigns, severance pay may not be required, although they may still be entitled to certain benefits.
