Independent workers registered with IMSS by state, Mexico
People registered with IMSS under the independent-worker scheme (personas trabajadoras independientes, self-employed people not in a subordinate job) in December 2024, per 100,000 population (derived with CONAPO's 2024 mid-year projection), and the change since December 2023 (derived), from Cuadro I.28. Through December 2023 this was a pilot; 2024 is the first year of the regular incorporation scheme after the December 2023 law reform. 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.
