Program Overview: What is Mexico Labour Reform and REPSE Outsourcing Compliance?
Mexico Labour Reform & REPSE Outsourcing Compliance is a 27-hour corporate training program for HR leaders, legal teams, and procurement managers working with Mexican operations. It covers the labour reform foundations and the outsourcing ban, the REPSE registry and renewal, compliant specialized services contracting, IMSS, Infonavit and tax reporting, PTU reform, and STPS inspections with beneficiary liability. Learners finish by running a full REPSE compliance audit.
The program runs as seven instructor-led modules with five hands-on labs. Learners map their service contracts against the outsourcing ban, complete a mock REPSE registration checklist, draft a compliant specialized services contract from a non-compliant sample, build a quarterly reporting pack, calculate capped PTU for a sample workforce, and prepare an inspection evidence file. Instructors coach each exercise. The five-hour capstone runs the full REPSE compliance audit on a simulated company with a findings memo.
Companies using service providers in Mexico face steep penalties when contracts, registration, or payroll reporting fall short: STPS fines, beneficiary liability, and criminal exposure. This program teaches teams to contract specialized services correctly, stay registered, report accurately, and prepare for inspections. The payoff is outsourcing that survives regulatory scrutiny.
The capstone delivers a complete REPSE compliance audit of a simulated company: contract review, registration status, reporting accuracy, PTU calculations, and inspection readiness, presented as a findings memo for instructor review. Teams return with a working audit method and contract templates they can apply to their own operations, so compliance becomes a scheduled discipline rather than a reaction to an inspection notice.
Teams Enhance their compliance Capability through guided labs and applied exercises, not lectures alone. Employees Upskill in contract review, REPSE validation, and IMSS and Infonavit reporting, then apply them to their Day-to-day Work. Collaboration improves as compliance, legal, and HR align on one defensible standard, and Performance is measured through the capstone REPSE compliance audit rather than quizzes.

Develop Evidence-Based REPSE Oversight Across Contracts, Reporting, and Inspection Preparation
Edstellar helps Mexico employment and compliance teams connect the reform topics in the curriculum with operational evidence. Participants classify service arrangements, review registration requirements, and practice contracting, reporting, and PTU calculations. A simulated REPSE audit tests how consistently they identify gaps and support findings across legal, HR, payroll, and contractor oversight.
- Step 01
Consult
We explore contractor arrangements, payroll responsibilities, and familiarity with Mexico's outsourcing framework to identify learning gaps in REPSE checks, reporting packs, and inspection evidence.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish the reform framework before REPSE registration and specialized-services contracts, then practice reporting, PTU calculations, and inspection preparation before the compliance audit.
- Step 03
Align
We align Mexico employment and outsourcing compliance expertise with legal, HR, payroll, and audit roles, using contractor oversight responsibilities to set appropriate case depth.
- Step 04
Customize
Sample service agreements, registration records, and workforce figures reflect relevant contractor arrangements, supporting practical reporting and PTU exercises without exposing employee or vendor records.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants classify contracts, complete mock registration checklists, draft reporting packs, and calculate sample PTU, receiving feedback on supporting assumptions and consistency across compliance records.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We review the simulated audit memo for evidence-backed contract classifications, documented registration checks, consistent calculation and reporting work, and clearly prioritized gaps requiring follow-up.
