Description

Argentina carried out its first national survey on agricultural labor conditions on 4 October 1937. Surveyors assessed wages, work hours, housing, and workplace safety among rural workers. Findings exposed inequalities between regions and industries. Policymakers used the results to develop early labor protection measures. The survey helped strengthen awareness of rural working conditions. Its completion marked a milestone in national labor reform efforts.
