USTR Announces Labor Complaint Resolution Involving Tizapa Mine

Eleven workers were rehired at Minera Tizapa, and the mining company will bargain with the new union, the Office of U.S. Trade Representative and Labor Department announced, as a result of a rapid response labor complaint. The company had paid a bonus only to workers associated with the old union; as a result of this settlement, that bonus was paid to 249 other workers.

The company also trained its managers on neutrality.

The USTR said nearly 30,000 workers in Mexico have benefited from the rapid response mechanism in USMCA.
