Argentine Workers' Central Union
(
Spanish
:
Central de Trabajadores de la Argentina
,
CTA
) is a
trade-union federation

Argentina
. Its general secretary is

left-wing
-tendency organization, it is led by unionists with a

viewpoint. There are also
peronist
,

minorities.
History
[
edit
]
The most important union confederation that inhabits the CTA is that of the CTERA teachers.
[5]
The Workers' CTA is aligned with
Kirchnerism
and its leader is the teacher
Hugo Yasky
.
[6]
CTA was born in 1992 to confront the trade unionism that was aligned with the Menemism around the CGT, the Peronist labor union.
[7]
Its main founders were two unions (the state unions of ATE and the teachers of CTERA) that at that time showed more disagreement with the dialogue and support position that the majority of the
Peronist
unionists took.
[8]
Later, the CTA ended up being divided into two slopes, the
Workers' CTA
and the
Autonomous CTA
. The most numerous is that of the Workers, who always supported
Cristina Kirchner
and in which her most powerful base union is the SUTEBA, led by teacher Roberto Baradel.
