Abstract

The business work environment is a factor that fundamentally influences the productivity and results of organizations according to numerous previous studies of different researchers, which affects a number of very broad situations that create the objective of this research. Companies set their goals and try to achieve them in one way or another, but the know-how, generates the big difference that directly and indirectly, impacts the success or failure of companies. Hence, this research identifies and analyzes the need, the causes of inadequate performance and the feasible solutions applicable to the Work Environment and job satisfaction of the companies or work areas. The study was conducted with a sample formed by 645 professionals who work in the state of Baja California, an industrial center of vital importance in Mexico, which is a border with the US state of California. The obtained data gives the opportunity to create categorizations that are useful as indicators and gives a greater knowledge of the causes and variables that induce a crisis in the work and, therefore, require proposals and feasible solutions to be applied. It becomes, then, a challenge for leaders, entrepreneurs, educators and people in general, to be aware of the impact of the work environment
