The levels of employment in a society are an issue of utmost importance on which public policies should focus. In the perspective of the labor market, the literature has agreed that the best results are obtained with an adequate design of the programs, for which it is important to define the objective to be achieved and additionally establish a diagnosis of the economic structure and the interrelationships that occur between subsectors and that pay for the direct and indirect generation of employment. In this sense, the present research through the analysis of the Input-Product Matrix offers evidence that the subsectors of the food industry, building, agriculture, food and beverage preparation, transport equipment, construction of civil engineering works, manufacture of clothing and animal husbandry and exploitation are the ideal ones to propose a labor policy given their capacity to generate employment.

Keywords : input-output matrix; labor market policy; Mexico.
