Aguascalientes Kicks Off 2026 with Over 1,600 Formal Jobs Generated in January

trajectory of growth that has been consistent over the last decade. To put this into perspective, the state has added nearly 35,000 jobs since the levels recorded in 2021, reflecting a structural recovery that appears to have moved past the fluctuations of the health crisis.

The Foundation of Stability: Predominance of Permanent Employment

Furthermore, a detailed analysis of employment composition reveals that the robustness of the local market does not rely on temporary positions. Of the more than 363,000 registered workers, 92.7% (337,111 individuals) hold permanent positions, while only 7.2% (26,300) are under temporary schemes. Consequently, this proportion suggests that companies established in the region are prioritizing talent retention and contractual stability, key factors for strengthening domestic consumption.

In the same vein, an annual comparison reveals a clear qualitative leap: The start of 2026 surpasses the 362,407 jobs recorded in January 2025, but the difference becomes stark when looking at the recent past: from the 335,280 positions that existed pre-pandemic (January 2020), the state has maintained sustained growth year after year. Consequently, this report clarifies that Aguascalientes has not only managed to exceed critical past levels but has also established a new baseline for growth.
