Mexico’s Lower House of Congress approved the general text of one of the most aggressive labor reform bills in the world, which would give additional rights and benefits to gig workers employed at digital apps like Uber Technologies Inc. and Didi Global Inc.
The reform, proposed by President Claudia Sheinbaum, passed on Tuesday with 462 votes in favor, none against and no abstentions, according to a Lower House post on X. Lawmakers will continue the discussion of individual articles of the bill.
