Flash General No 11 – July 2024
In Communication No. 334/2024 published on July 3, 2024, the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) stated that through the Directorate of Incorporation and Collection, it has employed various strategies to monitor employers’ compliance with social security regulations, with the aim of ensuring timely payment of contributions that guarantee the protection of workers’ rights.
Through various auditing programs, the IMSS has optimized the exercise of its economic-enforcement powers by designing applications that allow individuals and public entities to directly verify a company’s fiscal status, such as through the Compliance Opinion on Social Security Obligations (Compliance Opinion).
Additionally, through the “Personalized Contribution Report at IMSS” (RPCI), the Institute has provided access for every worker to know and monitor their registration with the IMSS, enabling them to see in real-time which employer registered them, with what salary, and for how many days in a month. Workers can obtain their RPCI by downloading the IMSS Digital App on their mobile phones and registering once with their Social Security Number, CURP, and an email address.
This tool is linked to the reporting channel http://www.imss.gob.mx/denuncia, It allows the restoration of workers’ rights for those who provide evidence of non-compliance with social security regulations.
For its part, in a statement published on July 5, 2024, the IMSS reaffirms specific auditing actions regarding the cleaning sector, whose audits have determined 186 million pesos, 4 through self-correction and the rest through definitive tax credit resolutions; identifying 21,997 workers not reported and 19,563 underreported.
Based on these actions, the IMSS has achieved greater compliance with timely payments by the employer sector.
