workers and workers without valid permits,
are entitled to Social Security. The Mexican
Social Security Institute (Instituto Mexicano de

several benefits to all insured workers.

A good post, Prof.Gringo.

An additional right that all employees have is to be represented by a Union 'syndicate'

Ask your employer for the contact details. They are legally obliged to provide this information for you.

What if you are contracted by an American company to work for a school in Mexico?

My contract was broken a month ago when they cut the pay.
Who is responsible for the terms f my contract? The school is changing to a Mexican owner.

I'm leaving Hermosillo tomorrow, but I and another teacher are trying to get the U.S. company to take responsibility for breaching the contract.
