As expected, the transportation manufacturing industry (which
includes automotive and aerospace), along with the mining and
constructions industries, have been characterized as essential and
will be allowed to restart operations on June 1, provided that they
implement the health and safety protocols to be issued by the
Ministry of Health prior to such date.
The guidelines set forth today by the Mexican government provide
a strategy to resume social, educational, and economical activities
under the COVID-19 emergency, in a gradual, orderly, and cautious
manner. This strategy includes a staged return of activities, as
well as the use of a regional stoplight system to assess the risk
involved in resuming operations.
