Enero 2025 comienza con mayor informalidad que 2024
Mexico’s labor market in early 2025 reveals a persistent structural crisis, with more than half of the workforce remaining in informal employment. Despite low unemployment rates, the informal sector continues to absorb more workers than the formal sector, denying the majority access to social security and stable benefits. This dynamic highlights a deep-seated issue that undermines economic competitiveness and social stability for millions of employees. The mismatch between labor supply and demand is exacerbated by a severe shortage of qualified talent, as most businesses struggle to fill vacancies. This lack of skilled personnel stems from insufficient education and continuous training, directly linking high informal employment rates to reduced national competitiveness. The data suggest that without addressing these educational gaps, the labor market cannot evolve into a more robust and secure system. This report is crucial for open data initiatives, as it underscores the need for transparent, high-quality labor statistics to drive policy solutions. By exposing the scale of informality and its impact on talent availability, open data can facilitate better analysis of workforce dynamics. This visibility is essential for developing targeted strategies to reduce informality and promote equitable economic growth through improved access to rights and training.
