Abstract

Wage and Subjective Conditions Assessing Tool was designed and applied as a tool for assessing psychosocial components of job safety in a sample of 518 employees from different companies in the manufacturing sector of the Colombian Caribbean region. Reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis and principal components analysis with VARIMAX rotation were performed. Results show acceptable internal reliability of the scale (Α = 0.898) and satisfactory adequacy of factorial matrix data (KMO = 0.888). The factorial structure was represented by 20 items staggered into five groups: wages, job security, individual, hierarchical and technical level. In conclusion confirms the instrument adequate reliability and structural stability useful for the analysis and design of programs in order to implement changes in wage and subjective conditions to achieve employee satisfaction.
