In the Mexican labor environment,\u00a0severance and termination payments<\/strong>\u00a0are two key concepts that every worker and employer must understand.<\/p>\n

Whether due to a work accident, illness, dismissal, or resignation, knowing your rights will allow you to act clearly and protect your financial stability. Below, I explain the different scenarios, benefits, and procedures that apply in Mexico.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcca Summary: Severance vs. Termination Payments<\/h2>\n

Severance<\/strong><\/td>\nWork-related risks, unjustified dismissal<\/td>\nEconomic compensation for damage or loss<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Termination payment<\/strong><\/td>\nEnd of employment relationship<\/td>\nAccrued and proportional benefits<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\ud83c\udfe5 1. Compensation for Work-Related Risks<\/h2>\n

When a worker suffers an accident or illness related to work, the social security system in Mexico protects their rights through\u00a0IMSS<\/strong>\u00a0(for private sector workers) or\u00a0ISSSTE<\/strong>\u00a0(for public sector workers).<\/p>\n

Main Worker Rights:<\/h3>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Right<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Free medical care<\/strong><\/td>\nAt IMSS or ISSSTE facilities<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Temporary disability<\/strong><\/td>\n100% of base salary subsidy for up to 52 weeks<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Partial permanent disability<\/strong><\/td>\nCompensation proportional to degree of disability<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Total permanent disability<\/strong><\/td>\nLifetime pension when unable to return to work<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Death compensation<\/strong><\/td>\nFor economic dependents of deceased worker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

How Is the Compensation Process?<\/h3>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Step<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
1<\/strong><\/td>\nWorker must be affiliated with IMSS or ISSSTE<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
2<\/strong><\/td>\nThe accident or illness must be properly documented<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3<\/strong><\/td>\nIt must be proven to have occurred during or due to work<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
4<\/strong><\/td>\nA procedure is initiated with the corresponding institution<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

\ud83d\udcce\u00a0Consult official guidelines from\u00a0IMSS<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0ISSSTE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\u2696\ufe0f 2. Termination Payment<\/h2>\n

When an employment relationship ends, depending on the reason, the worker may be entitled to a\u00a0termination payment<\/strong>. This payment compensates for job loss and includes various accrued benefits.<\/p>\n

Common Scenarios:<\/h3>\n

\ud83d\udd34 Unjustified Dismissal<\/h4>\n

If the employer ends the employment relationship without legal cause, the worker is entitled to:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Concept<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Three months of integrated salary<\/strong><\/td>\nConstitutional compensation<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
20 days of salary for each year worked<\/strong><\/td>\nSeniority premium<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Proportional benefits<\/strong><\/td>\nChristmas bonus, vacation, vacation premium, etc.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\ud83d\udc49 You can go to\u00a0PROFEDET<\/strong>\u00a0for free advice.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\ud83d\udfe2 Voluntary Resignation<\/h4>\n

In this case, the worker\u00a0is not entitled to compensation<\/strong>. However, they must receive:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Concept<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Proportional Christmas bonus<\/strong><\/td>\nCorresponding part of the year worked<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Unused vacation and vacation premium<\/strong><\/td>\nAccrued days not taken<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Pending salaries<\/strong><\/td>\nDays worked not paid<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

\ud83d\udfe1 Fixed-Term Contract<\/h4>\n

If the contract expires naturally and is not renewed, there is generally\u00a0no termination payment<\/strong>, unless the contract specifies otherwise.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udcdd 3. Justified Dismissal<\/h2>\n

Occurs when the employer terminates the contract for valid legal reasons, such as:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Cause<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Serious misconduct<\/strong><\/td>\nTheft, violence, fraud, harassment<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Breach of obligations<\/strong><\/td>\nFailure to attend work without justification<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Business restructuring<\/strong><\/td>\nStaff reduction due to economic reasons<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

Proper Procedure for Justified Dismissal:<\/h3>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Step<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
1<\/strong><\/td>\nWritten notice to the worker with reasons for dismissal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
2<\/strong><\/td>\nDelivery of documentary evidence of the infractions committed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3<\/strong><\/td>\nPayment of accrued benefits (no extra compensation)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\ud83d\udca1\u00a0Important:<\/strong>\u00a0Even without termination payment, the employer must pay everything owed up to the dismissal date.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\ud83d\udcca How Is Termination Payment Calculated?<\/h2>\n

Basic example for unjustified dismissal:<\/h3>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Concept<\/th>\nValue<\/th>\nCalculation<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Monthly salary<\/strong><\/td>\n$15,000 MXN<\/td>\n–<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Total estimated<\/strong><\/td>\n$75,000 MXN<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

\ud83d\udd17\u00a0Use the\u00a0Mexican Government’s official calculator<\/a>\u00a0to estimate exact amounts.<\/strong><\/p>\n
