International migration is a key element in development processes. The migratory corridor of Central America and Mexico is one of the most important in the world, through which both migrants from the countries of the area and people from other parts of the Americas and the world transit. Many migrants participate actively in the economic environments of the region, generating a dynamic where migration is an important factor of transformation. Labour migration is not without challenges in Mexico. With regard to the labour market integration of migrants, there are major challenges in the areas of recruitment and recruitment, migration regularization of migrant workers, outbreaks of racism and xenophobia in host communities and labour markets, as well as the lack of information for employers and migrants, to mention the most pressing. To this end, IOM presents this manual, which seeks to provide elements that can help ensure regular, orderly and safe migration.
