Plans by Mexican state oil company Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) to cut jobs at its six refineries through attrition this year could undermine safety at the plants, an internal company document shows.<\/p>\n

Pemex plans to leave 9,374 vacancies at its refineries unfilled this year, 50 percent greater than its unfilled refinery positions last year, the document by refining unit Pemex TRI shows.<\/p>\n

There were 22,472 unionized and 1,297 non-unionized workers at Pemex\u2019s refineries, according to a document dated November 2020.\u00a0For more information visit www.pemex.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
