Mexico City: Mexico is among a number of countries more open to the use of technology among workers, even ranked among more developed countries where these tools are more available.

In a conference, Mexico Dell Director Gil Goncalves and Intel Director Scott Overson released the third part of the study, "The Evolution of the Workforce," which highlights the country's important acceptance of the growing use of technology.

According to the results, the countries most open to worker participation in the selection of technology in the workplace are China with 59 percent, Mexico with 57 percent, and Brazil with 50 percent.

"Conversely, this new method of work has not had much acceptance in developed countries, since they face legacy infrastructure and industry restrictions. So they find themselves lagging behind in terms of not being able to offer their workers various work possibilities in this industry," explained Goncalves.

The study was conducted in eleven countries. Spanish original
