Argentina is going through a severe crisis in the construction sector, characterized by a marked context of economic recession, a sustained fall in demand for housing and a significant loss of sources of employment better than the neoliberal government of Javier Miley.

This situation is part of a broader scenario where, since the beginning of the current administration, there has been a reduction in formal private employment in more than half of the country's productive branches.

The negative impact of this situation has directly affected several key sectors of the economy, hitting the manufacturing industry and transport with particular force, with construction being the most affected area.

Economic instability not only affects construction companies, but it also generates a domino effect that drags on material suppliers, transport companies and small businesses that depend directly on this activity.

Faced with this critical scenario, the workers' union has begun to demand the implementation of urgent measures to reverse the situation and stop the destruction of jobs.

The lack of activity in the sector remains one of the main sources of concern within Argentina's private productive structure, evidencing the challenges faced by the country in reactivating investment and urban development.
