description It is an academic consensus that from the crisis of the fordist productive model, and as part of the neoliberal offensive, new forms of labor organization expanded characterized by globalization, the productive centrality of new technologies and labor flexibility, among other aspects. However, there is no such agreement to signal a transformation in the forms of the collective organization of workers. On the contrary, many authors point out the persistence in our country of a traditional trade union system. Without denying its centrality, our hypothesis is that the very expansion of precarious work and the mutation in the productive organization lead to a process of union renewal. This article seeks to investigate transformations in the forms of organization of workers, based on a case study based on computer workers, who represent an emblematic sector of this new historical period crossed by post-industrial productive and labor features. From a qualitative methodological perspective, our study focuses on the four trade unions of computers workers in force in our country during the last decade (UTSA, SUTIRA, UI and AGC), from interviews with union leaders and documentary analysis of Collective Labor Agreements, newsletters and union virtual publications. As a result, we find the persistence of the trade union form in the collective organization of the SSI sector, with resignifications of their repertoires of action and demands in light of the particularities of the post-industrial society in which computer workers carry out their jobs.

Resulta un consenso académico que a partir de la crisis del modelo productivo fordista, y como parte de la ofensiva neoliberal, se expandieron nuevas formas de organización laboral caracterizadas por la globalización, la centralidad productiva de las nuevas tecnologías y la flexibilización laboral, entre otros aspectos. Sin embargo, no existe tal acuerdo para señalar una transformación en las formas de organización gremial de los trabajadores. Por el contrario, muchos autores señalan la persistencia en nuestro país de un sistema sindical tradicional. Sin negar su centralidad, nuestra hipótesis es que la propia expansión de la precarización laboral y la mutación en la organización productiva dan lugar a un proceso de renovación sindical. Así, este artículo buscamos indagar las transformaciones en las formas de organización de los trabajadores, a partir de un estudio de caso basado en los informáticos, que representan a un sector emblemático de este nuevo periodo histórico atravesado por rasgos productivos y laborales postindustriales. Desde una perspectiva metodológica cualitativa, nuestro estudio se focaliza en las cuatro organizaciones gremiales de informáticos vigentes en nuestro país durante la última década (UTSA, SUTIRA, UI y AGC), a partir de entrevistas a referentes sindicales y análisis documental de Convenios Colectivos de Trabajo, gacetillas y publicaciones virtuales sindicales. Como resultado, encontramos la persistencia de la forma sindicato en la organización colectiva del sector de SSI, con resignificaciones de sus repertorios de acción y demandas a luz de las particularidades de la sociedad postindustrial en la que los informáticos desarrollan su trabajo.
