Overview
- The ISSSTE Board approved an agreement published in the Diario Oficial on December 29, setting new retirement rules that the document states take effect the next business day, though one outlet reports implementation from January 2026.
- The timetable keeps the minimum at 56 for women and 58 for men initially, begins reductions in 2028, and reaches 53 for women and 55 for men from 2034 onward.
- Access is restricted to employees covered by the 2007 Décimo Transitorio who did not choose pension bonds or AFOREs and who have at least 30 years of contributions for men or 28 for women.
- The institute directed its benefit and incorporation units to apply the criteria in pension procedures and said costs will be met through budgets authorized by the Chamber of Deputies.
- Officials acknowledge a fiscal impact exceeding 36 billion pesos this administration, and the move follows a June presidential decree and sustained CNTE mobilizations.
