We remind you that the submission of the risk premium declaration to the Mexican Social Security Institute (“IMSS”) is a mandatory procedure that must be completed no later than the last day of February.

It is important to consider that illnesses or accidents suffered by workers during the reported year can have an influence in the increase of the risk premium.

In our experience, we have identified that, in some cases, illnesses that are not work-related are classified as occupational diseases by IMSS doctors. Likewise, it is common for permanent disabilities, whether partial or total, resulting from workplace accidents or diseases, to be assessed at a higher percentage than what truly corresponds.

These situations can lead to additional costs for companies, with an impact that may represent up to 1% of the total payroll cost.

According to the criteria established by the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, disputed occupational hazards must be challenged together with the rectification of the risk premium, which means that such hazards should not be included in the declaration. To avoid contingencies and ensure proper handling of these cases, seeking specialized advice before filing the declaration is advisable.

If you identify that any workplace hazard has been improperly classified and wish to contest it, or if you require assistance in preparing your risk premium declaration, our team is available to support you. Do not hesitate to contact us for guidance and ensure proper compliance with your obligations.
