The workers, who are primarily Central Americans, experience everyday life trajectories that are shaped by mobility practices linked to migratory, labor, and private spheres. From the social perspective of everyday life, the author seeks to analyze this sector's border crossing experience, which occurs in one of the most important regions with regard to population flow: the southern border between Mexico and Guatemala. A labor market has been formed in this region in which some social actors are able to construct ways of life based on their daily mobility and their recognition of a difficult and controlled spatial and temporal dimension. Este trabajo está centrado en explorar la experiencia de la movilidad humana de los trabajadores transfronterizos que viajan a localidades de Chiapas para trabajar en algún sector económico específico. Los trabajadores, en su mayoría centroamericanos, experimentan trayectorias de la vida cotidiana bajo determinadas prácticas de movilidad que involucran ámbitos migratorios, laborales y privados. Se busca analizar, desde la perspectiva social de la vida cotidiana, la experiencia del cruce fronterizo de este sector en una de las regiones más importantes en cuanto a flujo poblacional se refiere: la frontera sur entre México y Guatemala. Espacio en el cual se ha configurado un mercado laboral donde algunos actores sociales son capaces de construir formas de vida a partir de su movilidad cotidiana y su reconocimiento de una dimensión espacial y temporal difícil y controlada.
