Article 132 of Mexico’s Federal Labor Law lists the duties of employers. Fraction VI requires them to “guardar a los trabajadores la debida consideración, absteniéndose de mal trato de palabra o de obra” (show workers due consideration and refrain from mistreating them in word or deed).
Under Article 51, a worker may end the employment, without liability, when the employer or the employer’s representatives commit “injurias, hostigamiento y/o acoso sexual, malos tratamientos u otros análogos” (insults, harassment and/or sexual harassment, mistreatment or other similar acts) against the worker.
