Overview
- The Secretaría del Trabajo said Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2026, that union leaders and Nacional Monte de Piedad signed an STPS dictamen that the parties accepted to close the nearly year-long strike.
- The institution plans a phased return to service beginning Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026, with branch hours, an online appointment system and measures to manage expected customer demand.
- The signed pact addresses core union demands by committing to regularize job positions, honor the collective bargaining agreement and pay 100% of salaries caídos generated during the stoppage.
- The agreement still needs formal ratification before the Centro Federal de Conciliación y Registro Laboral and faces related judicial review at the Supreme Court level, so the legal end of the strike is not yet final.
- Customers were told pledged items were kept inventoried in high‑security vaults during the strike and the reopen plan includes 45 days without interest, discounts on accumulated interest and updated commercialisation dates to let people retrieve or regularize loans.
