This article discusses the political process of labor reform in the national public administration, made in the 1990s by the government of Carlos Menem. Such reform involved the adoption of an act of collective bargaining for this sector of the public employment and empowerment to develop a collective labor agreement -the first- for their employees. This new set of rules has introduced an important set of rights and obligations, both individual and collective, for public servants, but in the terms of a more flexible labor relations. How was it possible that change? Considering that in the public sector trade union there is plurality, the argument here is that could be performed because formed a part of the set of agreements between the government and one of the two most influential trade unions to perform the administrative reform.
