Abstract

This work shows the degree of association between the hidden costs, work commitment and mental health workers in academic accounting faculty and administration of the Autonomous University of Queretaro. The study is cross-explanatory, field, to test hypotheses with an ex post facto design, as it has no direct control of independent variables because their manifestations have already occurred. On the scale of the "SWS-Survey © 'mental health and occupational stress was used to meet the mental health profiles. In the case of the other two variables of work commitment and hidden costs, questions were validated by peers and experts. For analysis of the variables, SPSS version 15 for Windows was utilized. Thus the relationship established between the Hidden Costs, Labor Commitment and Mental Health in Academic Workers, administrative, economic and adverse reactions from the physical and emotional implications and their sociodemographic characteristics was identified. Finally intervention alternatives for modifying the working conditions to increase physical and mental health, reduce the hidden costs and increase employee engagement were proposed.
