The Secretariat of the Interior (Segob) in Mexico has called on workers of the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) to return to negotiations with their union leadership. The appeal follows a breakdown in dialogue and a subsequent street blockade on Reforma avenue that caused disruptions for the general population.
The intervention by Segob comes in the wake of a negotiation session held on the 8th, which failed to prevent the escalation of protests. Authorities are urging the labor force to avoid further road blockades and pursue a resolution through institutional channels.
