Usage Note

Convenio is a formal written agreement between institutions, unions, or governments — closer to a 'convention' or 'pact' than a casual deal (acuerdo). Convenio colectivo is the standard term for a collective bargaining agreement in Spanish labor law. Not interchangeable with contrato (a legal contract between private parties).
