The goal of this study is to understand why Mexico City, despite a strong service sector economy and a PRD government with a leftist discourse, does not have a policy to address the lack of quality employment in the city. The study carries out a case study of Mexico City, a global city in a developing country, in two parts, first looking at its policy-making process as related to labor and employment policy, and then looking at how this process plays out in one segment of the service sector, the janitorial industry. To examine the case, the new political economy approach was used, looking at the major players, institutions and arenas for policy-making, drawing upon available research, interviews and secondary sources. The study finds that the lack of a policy to improve job quality in the service sector is due to a lack of social actors and unions demanding such a policy, weak institutionality of the policy process and a lack of public oriented-ness of the major policy players.
