On April 6 of 2018, the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice (\u201cSCJN\u201d) published diverse precedents in its Judicial Weekly Gazette, related to the medical reports issued by the Mexican Social Security Institute (\u201cIMSS\u201d), their due basis and legal motivation, as well as the impossibility to challenge their contents.<\/p>\n
The SJCN concluded that the medical reports (formats known as ST-2, ST-3, ST-7 and ST-9, related to evaluation of professional diseases and accidents) issued by the IMSS, cannot be considered as final resolutions or rulings, even though they do have an impact in the employer\u2019s casualty rate for purposes of payment of social security contributions of the workmen\u2019s compensation insurance.<\/p>\n
Indeed, the SCJN determined that the reports do not affect direct interests of the employers. So, given their informative nature, such reports shall not fulfill the requirements of duly basis and legal motivation.<\/p>\n
Consequently, the SCJN stated that the reports are mere informative documents with no direct impact on the employers\u2019 interests and as such cannot be challenged before the Federal Court of Administrative Justice or the Federal Labor Boards.<\/p>\n
