Mexico City /
Claudia Sheinbaum becomes the first President of Mexico on Tuesday October 1unlike Andrés Manuel López Obrador who protested on December 1; This is why doubt arises about the bank operation that day.
The investiture ceremony will capture all the attention of Mexicans, but there are people who have to carry out operations that day. Here we tell you the bank operating hours.
Let us remember that Congress modified the Federal Labor Law to establish the October 1 of every six years as a mandatory day of restso there will be no classes that day and people who work will be paid double.
For this reason, December 1 is no longer ‘President’s Day’ as it was until six years ago. It can be said that the six-year term of Andrés Manuel López Obrador It lasted two months less than that of its predecessors.
Will banks open on October 1?
The Association of Banks of Mexico (ABM) clarified that financial institutions will not have service the first Tuesday of October 2024, as it is a holiday.
But don’t worry, because if you need to carry out financial operations you can do it through:
- Banks that offer service inside supermarkets
- ATMs, of the 63,400 in the country
- Digital, electronic and telephone banking (operate 365 days a year)
This is because the solemn session will be held in the Chamber of Deputies so that Andrés Manuel López Obrador passes the presidential sash to Claudia Sheinbauthe first woman to wear it in history.
What is the payment for working on October 1?
The first Tuesday in October is defined as mandatory rest day in the Federal Labor Law, which also establishes the remuneration for people who work on that date.
Article 74 of the law dictates that workers will receive triple payment that day: This is the normal salary for the day plus double pay for being a holiday.
