Mexico’s proposed tip regulation reform aims to ensure that workers who rely on tips receive at least the statutory minimum wage, preventing tips from being used as a substitute for base salary. The initiative has already been approved by the Chamber of Deputies and is currently under review in the Senate for potential approval.​

The proposal provides that:

• Tips may not replace the minimum wage.
• Workers must receive a guaranteed base salary, in addition to any tips.
• Tips will be distributed fairly by the workers themselves, without employer intervention.​

For companies, this implies:

• Adjustments to wage structures and payroll schemes.
• A review of internal policies to ensure full compliance with the new framework.
• Potential impacts on labor costs and HR administration processes.​

At JA DEL RÍO, we can support you with:

• Labor advisory on regulatory compliance.
• Analysis to anticipate cost increases and design strategies to mitigate their impact, avoiding abrupt changes.
• Implementation of internal controls aligned with the new tip regulation.​
