The Labor Enforcement and Verification for Effective Labor Compliance (LEVEL) program will work to advance Mexico’s labor and trade commitments under the USMCA. Ensuring Mexico’s compliance with labor and trade commitments will help shape the future of North American business and trade – and, critically, ensure that U.S. workers and businesses can continue to grow and compete.
LEVEL will strengthen labor law enforcement, improve private sector compliance, and empower workers to report violations and advocate for fair practices, wages, and working conditions in Mexico. LEVEL works in sectors where the production process is integrated across borders, and where labor compliance will have the greatest impact and benefit to U.S. workers. LEVEL will actively engage federal and state authorities, employer associations, and worker organizations to ensure broad-based ownership.
