Management of decent vacation time and vacation premium with AI

The "Decent Vacation" reform reconfigured rest schemes in Mexico, doubling the minimum days of paid vacation to which workers are entitled starting from their first year of service. While this represented a significant advance in labor rights, for Human Resources departments it meant a drastic increase in the complexity of managing free time, balance accruals, and the calculation of the vacation premium.

The danger of unsigned vacation certificates

Article 81 of the Federal Labor Law establishes that the employer must annually provide their workers with a certificate specifying their seniority, the vacation days corresponding to them, and the date on which they should enjoy them.

One of the most frequent mistakes companies make is keeping track of vacations in Excel spreadsheets or through informal authorizations via email or messaging. In a labor lawsuit, if the former employee claims payment for unused vacation days or the vacation premium from recent years, the burden of proof falls on the company. Without a legally signed certificate, the courts will order the employer to pay those concepts again, even if the employee did enjoy their rest days.
