Formal jobs registered with IMSS by state, Mexico
Jobs registered with the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) on December 31, 2024 (a measure of formal private-sector employment), per 1,000 population (derived using CONAPO's 2024 mid-year projection), the change since December 2019 (derived), employers registered in December 2024, and the average daily wage of registered jobs in pesos (as published for single-OOAD states; for the three split states, Quadranac averages the two offices' wages weighted by their registered jobs). IMSS reports by its administrative offices (OOAD); Mexico City, the State of Mexico and Veracruz each have two, which Quadranac adds together. Jobs are registered by the employer's registration in each OOAD, so workers who commute or work for multi-state employers may be counted where the employer is registered.
