SOLIZ BALDOMAR, Ruth Lily. The impact of psychosocial risk factors on workers in the industrial sector. Trascender contab. gest. [online]. 2022, vol.7, n.20, pp.71-81.  Epub 11-Nov-2022. ISSN 2448-6388.  https://doi.org/10.36791/tcg.v8i20.162.

Psychosocial factors are a topic widely discussed in the literature. For years, businessmen and academics have tackled the design of strategies aimed at their workers, such as offering better salaries, giving their employees promotion opportunities or improving the level of communication between co-workers. Recent approaches have promoted strategies within companies such as granting flexible hours, promoting supervision styles that generate confidence in their employees, selecting personnel according to certain personality traits or equitably distributing the workload. However, these strategies have had difficulties at the time of their implementation, since they require very significant investments for companies and do not ensure that the impact that these factors can generate, such as absences, abandonment, work stress, mental health is reduced, among others.

In this sense, the present research aims to investigate the impact of factors not commonly studied, such as intra- and extra-occupational psychosocial factors and their incidence in operating workers of companies in the industrial sector in the industrial zone of Guadalajara, Jalisco.

Through the literary review, some intra and extra- occupational psychosocial risk factors were analyzed, these being the most relevant for the authors mentioned throughout this research.

The field study carried out is descriptive, transactional, with a non-experimental design.

The methodological process consisted of the identification of theoretical pillars. And the census was defined to apply the techniques and selected instrument made up of 227 workers from the industrial sector in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco.

The information collected is systematized and the extra-occupational psychosocial risk factors are identified, as well as the occupational, sociodemographic and mental health information.

Palabras llave : psychosocial risk; job; work stress.
