Labor rights emerged as a result of the revolution, which did not surprise the workers of Monterrey, as local companies were already offering benefits such as social security, education, and housing. Humberto Trejo responded to Gerardo Aranda's call to establish a new representation, with the aim of addressing a specific business issue in the capital.
After almost three decades, Coparmex and the unions are carrying out a social dialogue to support the reform of Infonavit, led by President Juan José Sierra and union leaders. This is a historic moment not seen since the time when Carlos Abascal agreed with the unions on a "New Labor Culture," focusing on work, business, and housing.
Abascal emphasized that "mistakes have no rights," highlighting that local regulations and bureaucracy hindered both the creation and operation of companies. The reform of Infonavit requires shared responsibility among workers, companies, and government, something that Coparmex has promoted since the establishment of the Business Center of Mexico City 27 years ago.
Coparmex CDMX, the evolution of the original business organization, has joined the initiative of a National Advisory Council to harmonize relationships within companies and with the government. Collaborating with the city government, they aim to reverse problematic situations in order to create a more prosperous business and social environment.
Almost a decade ago, Mexico City became a new political entity under the slogan "the city that has it all," coined by Coparmex. This evolution implied working in companies and living in 21st-century homes. Autonomy and the right to make mistakes are necessary to reach adulthood and responsibility, principles of the Enlightenment that remain relevant today.
