Workers' compensation: 122 obsolete occupational risk rules repealed

The Occupational Risk Superintendency (SRT) declares the lapse of and repeals a large batch of its own rules on three levels: (1) Annex I, the TACIT repeal of resolutions already replaced, contradicted or superseded by later rules (with no practical effect, but still formally part of the regulatory body); (2) Annex II, the EXPRESS repeal of resolutions and articles that have served their purpose, have expired or are obsolete, applying the regulatory clean-up criteria of Decree 90/2025; (3) the PARTIAL repeal of specific provisions inside acts whose remaining content stays in force. The sector press (UART, insurer outlets) converges on an aggregate count of 122 rules (29 repealed tacitly + 93 expressly) — that breakdown is not in the text extracted from the Official Gazette notice, so the total figure stands as probable even though the act itself (agency, number, date, purpose) is verified. verif · Jul 28, 2026 ↗

Employers of every sector and size (the occupational risk system is cross-cutting, under Law 24,557), workers' compensation insurers (ART), and the compliance and occupational health-and-safety firms that today need to know the SRT's full regulatory body in order to advise. By removing obsolete or already replaced rules, it lowers the cost of keeping up with the regulations actually in force (less regulatory noise, less risk of citing a rule that has in fact been repealed). prob · Jul 28, 2026 ↗
