In brief: Mexico
*A report by Mexico’s national statistics and geography institute (Inegi) found that although unemployment rates are falling, labour productivity has not improved. Labour productivity fell by 0.1% in the last quarter of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016. Between the third and fourth quarters of 2017, there was no variation overall. Via his official Twitter account, Inegi president Julio Santaella commented on the “sideways trend” during the last three years, despite the need to focus on “greater productivity to help Mexico reach its maximum potential” outlined in President Enrique Peña Nieto’s flagship 2013-2018 national development plan.
