The Senate and Chamber of Deputies of the Argentine Nation assembled in Congress, etc. sanction with force of Law:

ARTICLE 1 Each collective bargaining unit of the working conditions shall have the proportional participation of women delegated on the basis of the number of women workers of that branch or activity.

ARTICLE 2 The agreements concluded without the proportional representation of women will not be effective against women workers except when they set more beneficial conditions.

The lists should also include women in those minimum percentages and in places that enable their choice.
