Dear clients and friends,
This past April 9th, the Chamber of Deputies approved a bill reforming articles 33 and 1006 of the Federal Labor Law regarding the signing of blank documents, which was presented by members of the Citizens Movement and the Institutional Revolutionary Party.
With this bill it is sought to eradicate the bad practices of some employers requiring their new workers to sign blank pages which can subsequently be filled in with text that involves a waiver of rights (a presumed voluntary termination of employment) or that impose obligations on the worker.
