SUTEP Extras (Córdoba)

What SUTEP Extras (Córdoba) does

SUTEP (Sindicato Único de Trabajadores del Espectáculo Público y Afines de la República Argentina) is an Argentine labor union founded in 1953 that holds personería gremial (union registration) number 268/54, granting it exclusive legal representation rights for workers across 11 entertainment sub-sectors: radio, cinematography, theater, amusement parks, swimming pools, Luna Park, circuses, bowling alleys, dance halls/nightclubs, TV extras, cinema, and advertising extras. Its core business is collective bargaining on behalf of affiliated workers, evidenced by active agreements including CCT 704/14 (multiscreen cinemas), CCT 524/07 (TV extras), and CCT 802/23 (advertising extras), plus enforcement actions such as the mobilization around Decree 14/2020 cinema-sector wage supplements. Member services are delivered through a national network of more than 40 local chapters (seccionales) under a central headquarters at Pasco 148, Buenos Aires.

SUTEP's revenue model is membership dues (aportes de afiliados) supplemented by income from three affiliated entities: AMERA (Asociación Mutual del Espectáculo de la República Argentina, founded 1968), a mutual benefit society providing subsidies and discounts; OSPEP (Obra Social del Personal del Espectáculo Público), a member health insurance plan; and a Secretaría de Turismo that operates vacation accommodations in Villa Giardino (Córdoba), Mar del Plata, and Necochea. Pricing for membership fees is not publicly disclosed, and the organization operates as a non-profit under Argentine law with no parent company, equity investors, or external capital structure.

The union is affiliated with major Argentine labor structures including CGT (Confederación General del Trabajo), COSITMECOS, CATE, the 62 Organizaciones Gremiales Peronistas, and globally with UNI Global Union. Leadership for the 2022-2026 term is headed by Secretary General Miguel Ángel Paniagua, who also serves as President of AMERA, with a Commission Directive that includes deputy, administrative, treasury, and action-secretary roles. Communication channels include the sutep.com.ar website, Facebook/Instagram/X social accounts (@SUTEP_AR), the 'Tras el Foro' weekly radio program (since 2017), live radio streaming, press releases, and downloadable member forms. Distribution is purely domestic Argentina, with no international operating footprint beyond global union federation membership.

• SAG-AFTRA: US entertainment union representing actors, broadcasters, recording artists, and media professionals. International analog to SUTEP, connected through UNI Global Union, with similar representational scope across film, TV, and broadcast extras.
• SATSAID (Sindicato Argentino de Televisión, Servicios Audiovisuales, Interactivos y de Datos): Argentine union for television, audiovisual, interactive, and data services workers. Shares membership in COSITMECOS and CGT with SUTEP and covers adjacent audiovisual categories to SUTEP's TV/film extras scope.
