Maquiladora and manufacturing companies are the main employers of the industrial sector in Jalisco, since around 384 thousand 345 people receive a salary from this branch, according to figures from the Association of Maquiladora and Manufacturing Industries of the West (Index), based on a study released by the Ministry of Economic Development (Sedeco) in 2016.
This figure represents 27.2% of the total jobs generated by the various Industrial Chambers of the State, which means that three out of every 10 jobs in the Jalisco industry belong to manufacturing companies. Of this total number of jobs, 182 thousand are workers in companies with a program for the Promotion of the Manufacturing Industry, Maquiladora and Export Services (Immex). These employees earn an average of 12,500 pesos per month, 30% more than a worker who does not work in these companies.
Federico Chávez, president of Index Occidente, also announced that the maquiladoras established in Jalisco represent 43% of exports (18 thousand 800 million dollars), and 40% of imports (30 thousand 494 million dollars), in addition to receiving 36% of the State's Direct Foreign Investment, according to the data of the Sedeco study.
They ask for greater security
Security is the primary issue to be resolved by the current and the next governor of Jalisco, Chávez considered, speaking about the fundamental issues that candidates for the state Executive Power must resolve.
Another important issue for the State, according to Index Occidente, is to improve mobility, in addition to making the second runway at the Guadalajara International Airport
Chávez also asked to give continuity to the public policies implemented by the Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology (SICYT) headed by Jaime Reyes, who, according to Index, has played a fundamental role in promoting the electronics industry in Jalisco.
