Mexico – Labor Law Updates
May 13, 2021
As of April 24, 2021, Mexico’s Federal Labor Law now prohibits the subcontracting of personnel, which is the practice of an entity outsourcing an employee to be available for the benefit of another entity. However, the law was amended to allow the subcontracting of specialized services and of services for the execution of work that are not a part of the receiving company’s core business.
Furthermore, company registrations must now be renewed every three years. The Department of Labor and Social Welfare will process the registration within 20 days after its receipt, and if not completed within this term, the said registration will be considered as having been approved.
