The human factor within organizations is exposed to different types of risks, especially those that cause damage to their physical and psychological health, which if not identified and treated in time can generate irreversible damage to them. In recent years, investigations have been carried out that address the subject, in which different instruments have been implemented to identify and evaluate this phenomenon, so the purpose of this systematic review article was to analyze the instruments that allow identifying the factors of Psychosocial risks at work (FPR) in Latin America. The information search included databases on the web, such as Redalyc, Dialnet, Scielo and ProQuest. Three people independently selected the articles for review, in a period from 2015 to 2020, where the methodological quality of each of them was evaluated, as well as the inclusion and exclusion criteria considered for the research. It was observed that in recent years different methods and instruments have been implemented to evaluate this phenomenon from different areas, so it is important to determine which are the optimal instruments to identify FPR in workers.

The objective of the present research was to determine the degree of validity and reliability of an instrument that measures the perception of the Quality of Work Life to provide elements on the strength of its psychometric properties. A quantitative methodology was used, with a non-experimental design, cross-sectional scope and descriptive type. The sample consisted of 202 workers from three organizations, located in the municipality of Navojoa, Sonora, Mexico, the type of sampling was a convenience fee. Construct validity and reliability tests were formulated for internal consistency. Validity results by varimax rotation indicate that the 15 dimensions of the instrument explain 65.9% of the variance of the instrument results, while the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the global scale shows a value of 0.974, both results are considered adequate. It is concluded that the instrument has acceptable validity and reliability properties that allow it to continue with tests to strengthen such properties, as well as being valid and reliable to collect the perception of the quality of work life in workers.

To carry out this project, it was necessary to carry out three phases, the first of which was research, in which technical and regulatory information sources applicable to the program were reviewed. In the second stage, the accident investigation process was designed, in which variables such as: investigation time, communication time, personnel and accident investigation follow-up were considered. Finally, a pilot run was carried out to identify the areas of opportunity of the program and define the corrective actions. Through the detection, management and control of accidents, it is possible to decrease the accident rate, this methodology identifies the root cause of the problem and generates corrective or preventive actions to avoid repeating said accident.

Our society and its organizations demand an effective management, being the role of managers essential for success, in particular at the Product System created to increase the quality and competitiveness of the agrifood chains of strategic products. This project aims to identify the degree to which managers in Aguascalientes cover the profile required to face the challenges that demand promoting the integration of agrifood chains of added value and achieve the sustainability of the Product System Committee. The process was developed under a mixed research approach (qualitative and quantitative) of descriptive scope, as a case study, with the application of specific tools from the position and performance analysis, to 50% of managers, with a non-sampling probabilistic for convenience. The diagnostic results indicate a high average (90%) in the position-person profile affinity, placing planning less than 75% as the main areas of opportunity, which negatively influences the achievement of sustainability, and on the other hand the level of mastery (33%) of the guidelines and strategies of integration and operation of the Committees. Derived from the analysis of results, recommendations related to talent management and managerial development were outlined.
