In an interview, the member of the commissions of Constitutional and Justice Points of the Senate He believed that instead of hardening the punishment for the simulation of subcontracting workers, the regulation should be strengthened and even considered that just applying the current law would be sufficient.
According to the legislator of National Action Party (PAN), to think about prohibiting outsourcing would be absurd, since it is a practice that is done all over the world and would also harm the economy of the country.
“Whoever squeezes and punishes the act of simulation, perfect. In legislative terms, it seems to me that it is already regulated, but if you want to strengthen it further, but if you want to ban it, it is absurd and would hurt the country’s economy, he said.
In his opinion, it is a mistake the way in which the initiative presented by the senator is written Napoleon Gómez Urrutia, which proposes to reform the Federal Labor and IMSS laws to combat illegal subcontracting, and companies that evade taxes and the payment of Social Security fees.
He said he would agree that such practice be well regulated, so that it is legally outsourced and not simulated, that workers’ rights are not abused or taken away.
According to the PAN, outsourcing in itself is not bad, because it is a practice that exists in the world, because companies hire staff that is not linked to the heart of the business as a company, “that’s why it is outsourced, and This outsourcing taxes are paid and the benefits that the company has for its workers.
“What is wrong is to simulate, that is what is illegal here and in the world. In fact, in the previous labor reform, which was where subcontracting was reformed, it is already prohibited, it is a matter of law enforcement, he said.
Zepeda Vidales He indicated that he is the enemy of informal pretrial detention on any subject, because he considers it an abuse of authority, and because someone who has not been found guilty cannot be put in jail, in this issue of outsourcing simulation or in other.
