| Summary: |
Taking into consideration the various economic cycles from the end of the last
century up to the present, we analyze the historical development of the
occupational health legislation in Mexico. Laws related to worker's health, the
regulation of these same laws, and the tracing of their emergence in different time
periods are discussed from a perspective that attemps to link together structural
phenomena that take place in Mexico and throughout the rest of the world. The
following points are also discussed: the principal features of and changes in
legislation; the passage of the Occupational Health Act ; the influence of
legislation on worker's health; neoliberal and protective interpretations of the
laws along with the role that these play in defining work conditions, and; the
formulation of a referencial framework that also reflects the changes in the
legislation of other contries.
Scanned herein are important concepts contained in the Constitution, labor and
social security laws enacted during various periods and for distinct groups of
workers, and changes in and contributions of legal regulations expressed in laws
and regulations. Our intention is to explore the way in which the right to
occupational health goes beyond a simple expanding prerogative. Up to a point,
this right to work-and- health meets the need for accumulation of capital. |
