The reform to reduce the weekly working hours

February 10, 2025 /
Season 3

In this episode, Juan Carlos Machorro, a partner at our firm, and Ernesto de la Puente, a senior associate in our labor law practice, meet to discuss the proposed reform to reduce the workweek; a series of initiatives seeking to amend the Constitution and the Federal Labor Law to reduce the workweek for Mexican workers to 40 hours. We discuss the business sector's opinion on these proposals, Mexico's situation compared to the rest of the world, and our expectations for this reform in the coming years.
