Grado De Compromiso Laboral Para La Mejora De Una Empresa Constructora en Mexico

Abstract

The construction sector is becoming more important every day in Mexico, due to population growth and its multiple needs for urban infrastructure, requiring for this purpose to have committed workers who allow the achievement of business objectives of development and growth. The objective of this research is to measure the degree of labor commitment of a construction company located in Mexico, with the purpose of influencing the improvement of the behavior of its personnel. First, a quantitative measurement was made and then the information was supplemented by qualitative interviews. A total of 30 workers that make up the company participate. The results indicate that the workers are moderately committed, because their participation and loyalty are not well defined. In addition, they have medium identification and belonging. Therefore, it is suggested to implement a strategic program for a culture of participation (empowerment), which includes greater initiative and autonomy for employees when sharing information and giving them greater control over their work performance, increasing trust, responsibility, and commitment to the company.
