2022 Labor Reform

In December 2022, the final phase to amend Articles 76 and 78 of the Federal Labor Law was approved, under which employees will be entitled to more mandatory and paid vacation days. The amendment became effective on January 1, 2023. The amendment established that workers who have completed one year of service will enjoy an annual and continuous paid vacation period of at least twelve working days, and that it will increase by two working days, up to twenty, for each additional year of service. As of the sixth year, the vacation period will increase by two days for every five additional years of service.
