Abstract

The present investigation reveals the correlation that exists between work stress and the interaction with worker productivity in their daily work activities such as the assembly of the product, which is necessary for the company, where the subject functions as the central axis for the Compliance with the productivity goals of the organization, the performance of the workers will depend on their behavior and also on the comfort when performing the work. The Occupational Stress Instrument, which is designed to measure the level of stress at work, which consists of 25 questions to identify the main conditions that influence the emergence of occupational stress, was applied in the facilities of a transnational maquiladora company dedicated to the production of accumulators, in the city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas during 2020. The research subjects were randomly selected. The research design was carried out under the quantitative approach and based on the state of the art of the instrument already mentioned in the previous paragraph whose objective is to collect information, with a non-experimental and cross-sectional design. In addition, it had a causal-correlational design to test the hypotheses. The statistical analysis carried out shows statistically significant differences in the percentage of general effectiveness between employees with high stress and those who show zero or low levels of stress (p <0.05), thus showing that productivity depends on the level of stress at which they are involved for their job duties.
