40-hour workweek: how companies in Mexico should prepare
The transition to a shorter workweek will require companies to reassess processes, productivity and work organization according to their specific circumstances.
Our partner Adrián Castillo was consulted by Merca2.0 on the challenges that the transition to a 40-hour workweek in Mexico may pose for companies.
Adrián explains that there is no one-size-fits-all solution and that each company’s approach will depend on its activities, industry and specific characteristics. Key considerations include reorganizing shifts and processes, managing overtime, productivity and the right to disconnect.
He also highlights the importance of taking a comprehensive approach to the transition, involving human resources, finance, legal and operations teams, as well as reassessing how productivity is measured to develop sustainable working arrangements.
