There may be such laws here, I don't know and haven't been able to find any. But if there are, clearly no one bothers about them. Thanks for the link, it's interesting.
Basically, doctors don't have a strong syndicate. Neither the municipality nor the province have done well financially for years (the national government not settling its debts with the province doesn't help. In the news today it looks like it's finally getting sorted out... but I don't trust our president to see it through). Both spend A LOT of their budget on salaries. So of course, any strong syndicate will get the biggest benefits.
Also, doctors can't go on complete strike, or there's outrage. They're on semi-strike at the moment, so they might finally get a raise, but we'll see how that works out.
And corruption? Argentina is 109th on the transparency index, and has been going down the last few years. It's a historical practice started in colonial days, continued by the "caudillos" (authoritarian political and military leaders of different provinces in the 1800s), carried on by the presidents, maximised in the military dictatorships...
Sorry, I can rant quite a bit about things like this. I'll shut up now.
