Mexican businesses cut salaries of outsourced employees

Businesses in Mexico are reportedly cutting the salaries of their employees since May this year, as many employers are struggling to comply with the country’s new labor outsourcing regulations.

The country passed a reform in April 2021 that prohibits subcontracting labor to third party service providers.

Since then, data from the Institute of Social Security (IMSS) shows that over 2.5 million outsourced workers were immediately hired directly by their employers in the initial three-month transition period.
