The Difference of only 0.8 points Percentages between both blocks shows a deep insecurity in Argentine society about the consequences of the measure promoted by the Milei government, whose promise is that labor reform will reduce informality and create more work.
Milei reverses a difficult trend amid the labor reform debate

The positive image of Milei reached 47% in this survey, while the negative image was 46.1%. But the study also shows that rejection of the figure of the libertarian leader reached over 50% for much of the year and outweighed acceptance, but this trend revived starting in October: the positive rate increased by about 10 points.
