Labour & Employment

EC Rubio’s Labour & Employment practice is one of Mexico’s leading employer-side labour law teams, advising multinational corporations and prominent domestic companies on employment, labour relations, workforce restructuring, union matters, and regulatory compliance. With more than 50 years of experience, the practice supports clients across Mexico’s principal industrial regions, delivering strategic and preventive labour solutions aligned with business objectives.

The team is highly regarded for its work in collective bargaining negotiations, union relations, labour litigation, workforce reorganizations, executive terminations, internal investigations, labour aspects of corporate transactions, compliance audits, and USMCA-related labour obligations. It regularly advises employers operating in unionized environments and complex cross-border operations.

EC Rubio negotiates more than 100 collective bargaining agreements annually and frequently assists clients with strike notices, union representation disputes, collective conflicts, workforce reductions, and labour transitions. The practice has extensive experience advising on labour reform compliance, including freedom of association, collective bargaining, subcontracting regulations, REPSE, and workplace obligations.

A key differentiator is its preventive and business-oriented approach, helping clients identify risks, maintain labour stability, ensure compliance, and support operational continuity.
