SAT Workers Press 12% Wage Hike Demands as Agency Reports Limited Disruption on Day Two

Talks remain open after a second day of limited disruption.

Overview

  • A coordinated 'brazos caídos' protest entered a second day as workers sought immediate application of the 12% 2025 increase tied to the minimum wage and payment of retroactive amounts.
  • The SAT reported normal service in 155 of 162 offices, rescheduling 3,258 appointments—about 5%—and providing 59,248 taxpayer attentions.
  • Operations were suspended at seven locations: Chihuahua; Celaya, Guanajuato; Guadalajara Sur and Zapopan, Jalisco; and Mexico City’s Oriente and Sur offices.
  • President Claudia Sheinbaum said roughly 400 of 25,000 employees are participating and stated that some demands, such as private major medical insurance, will not be met, with dialogue led by the SAT chief and the Labor Ministry.
  • Workers delivered an eight-point petition seeking restored benefits removed since 2018, review of hours, realistic targets, facility fixes and anti-harassment measures, warning of expanded actions if talks fail.
