For employees to feel comfortable and secure at the workplace, a series of requirements should be met. For example, the working environment should be appropriate, and the employees’ efforts and roles should be acknowledged as key to the development of the business. But certainly, the most important requirement is providing employees with IMSS insurance.
It is crucial that employees feel safe for their performance and productivity to increase. Not only are they protected, but also their families. All companies should prioritize their employees’ well-being, which ends up benefiting the business as well. More importantly, it is the workers’ fundamental right, and the employers’ obligation, to provide them with social security.

What kind of actions could make you be sanctioned as an employer?
- ● Failing to register as an employer with IMSS.
- ● Failing to insure workers within the established period of time.
- ● Paying a different salary to employees than the established.
On the other hand, the company may also be sued by one of the employees for non-compliance, and failing to register employees with IMSS. In that case, a legal fee must be paid and a complicated and lengthy process will follow.
The total amount of fees received will depend on the nature and the gravity of the fault committed by the company.
In the case that one of your employees suffers an accident and is uninsured, the company will pay higher costs for failing to comply with this guideline.
These are only some of the reasons why it is important to insure your employees with IMSS. If you still have not met this requirement, we recommend that you do as soon as possible.
