Leave for Children with Cancer

Since June 2019, working parents in Mexico whose children have cancer can take leave to care for them. According to the Mexican Social Security Institute, IMSS, the leave covers parents of children up to 16 years old. It may last up to 364 days within three years, and each single leave up to 28 days.

The reform added Article 140 Bis to the Social Security Law and a new cause for suspending work to the Federal Labor Law.
