Abstract
This chapter examines the labour dimension of the United States–Canada–Mexico Agreement (USMCA) and its role in the important changes that Mexico’s labour market institutions have undergone in recent years. The authors traces how the dynamics surrounding the negotiations of the agreement have provided a stimulus for change and supported reform efforts by domestic political actors. She then examines the USMCA’s’ labour provisions, including the innovative Rapid Response Labour Mechanism, and shows how this mechanism has helped to address collective labour rights issues in Mexico to date.
