Without the Paper

Article 24 of Mexico’s Federal Labor Law requires working conditions to be set down in writing when no collective contract applies.

Article 26 sets what happens when they are not: “La falta del escrito a que se refieren los artículos 24 y 25 no priva al trabajador de los derechos que deriven de las normas de trabajo y de los servicios prestados, pues se imputará al patrón la falta de esa formalidad.”

The worker keeps the rights that arise from labor law and from the work done, and the missing paper counts against the employer.
