The federal government told Interjet workers on Monday that it won’t take control of the beleaguered airline as requested by the employees’ union last week.
An employee who spoke to the newspaper
Milenio said that he and his colleagues were informed of the decision at a meeting with officials at the Interior Ministry.
Section 15 of the Mexican Workers Confederation asked the government last Friday to requisition Interjet, saying that leaving the airline in the hands of its new owners poses a threat to national security, the economy and the public interest.
Subcontracting of personnel would be prohibited.
The provision of specialized services and execution of works would be limited and the activities of placement agencies would also be regulated.
The ability to provide specialized services would require an authorization from the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare (STPS) and will be subject to additional requirements.
Compliance with obligations regarding subcontracting and the provision of specialized services and works would be required to be verified by the STPS and the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), which could impose higher penalties and also report to the tax authorities when companies fail to comply.
