Abstract

Abstract: In our country, psychosocial risks, although present in our legislation, are not considered with adequate relevance. Thus, it became necessary to deep into the Ecuadorian labor sector and to determine to what extent these psychosocial risks are present and affect the occupational health of workers. For this it was necessary to carry out this research with characteristics: non-experimental, descriptive, transversal and qualitative. Once a specific sector had been chosen, a sample of 20 national workers and 20 foreigners were taken and, with the use of psychological instruments, the sociodemographic and labor characteristics was determined. With the implementation of this descriptive, analytical, inductive and deductive, statistical method and Likert scales, the dimensions of psychosocial risks, levels of burnout, psychological capital, mental health, loneliness and resilience were determined. With this method, it was possible to evaluate the selected labor population and thus obtain data with which statistical tables were elaborated to be analyzed and discussed. This information was contrasted with other data obtained in similar investigations. Finally, after the analysis, the data was discussed in order to obtain conclusions such as the presence of a high pace of work and the perception of job insecurity.
