Labor alert – Mexico: Covid-19
On March 11, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus infection, also known as “Covid-19”, a global pandemic.
Even though the Federal Government has not issued a Declaration of Sanitary Contingency (“Contingency”), said Contingency would result in: (i) the total or partial suspension of work, and (ii) the employers paying their employees a general minimum salary in force for each day during the suspension of work instead of their ordinary wages, without exceeding thirty days.
In view of the coronavirus infection, hereunder we share a general guide of preventive measures to avoid the risks of contagion and to mitigate the risks to employers at the workplace, as well as the actions that may need to be taken in the event that the Contingency is issued and critical points to consider.
