We are experiencing a transcendental Labor Reform that brings with it the construction of a new Procedural Labor Law, where we find procedural rules and figures, but, above all, the figure of the Judge in the new labor courts stands out. Jurisdictional activity is essential for the construction of a constitutional and democratic State of Law, it is undeniable that the reform brought with it new requirements for an owner who will assume great responsibilities and fulfill a specific profile.

This aims to analyze the new profile of the labor judge, following the deductive and analytical work methods, starting from some antecedents of the Labor Reform, arriving at the idea of a new Procedural Labor Law in Mexico until reaching the profile of the new judge to study the formal requirements to occupy the position, some attitudes and skills that are required in daily judicial activity and, in particular, highlight some principles that should guide the actions of the new labor judges. Finally, some considerations are presented, in addition to the corresponding research sources.
