Overview
- IMSS reported 23.761 million affiliations associated to an employer that include platform beneficiaries, versus 22.572 million counted strictly as jobs.
- Within the pilot, 125,757 platform workers surpassed the income threshold and are treated as formal jobs, yet the institute did not specify how many September additions came from this group.
- Year-to-date formal job creation reached 333,303 through September, about 27% below the same period in 2024 and the weakest January–September since 2020, according to the coverage.
- Registered employers fell to 1,039,227, a 2.4% annual decline, extending a reported 17-month slide that IMSS links in part to tighter registration security for individuals.
- The average base wage rose to 623.1 pesos per day, the highest for any September, while transport and communications led annual job gains (+9.3%) and several states recorded declines led by Tabasco (-8.7%).
