The recent slowdown in the Mexican economy has widened the deficit employment gap and increased the need for more active government intervention, which allows for higher levels of employment. Given this environment, it is necessary to construct indicators that show the sectoral interrelationships of the economy that contribute to decision-making to develop employment policies. This article is carried out with an intersectoral approach, through the construction of employment coefficients, multipliers and elasticities, in order to identify the sectors with the greatest potential impact on employment that contributes to the direction of public employment policy. Estimates show that employment-product elasticity is higher in manufacturing industries, retail trade, construction, other services, agriculture, and transportation.

Keywords : Employment; Public policies; Input-Output; Interindustrial linkages.
