Clima organizacional y su relación con la satisfacción laboral en los trabajadores de una institución educativa del Sur de Quito, en el periodo 2024- 2025

Abstract

The objective of this research is to examine the relationship between the work environment and job satisfaction in a school located in the southern part of Quito during the years 2024-2025. The study included 50 workers, comprising both administrative staff and teachers. For data collection, validated tools were applied, such as the Work Social Climate Scale and the Overall Job Satisfaction Scale. It was revealed that 63.27% of the staff have a negative perception of the organizational climate, while 55.10% of them feel satisfied with their jobs. A moderate negative association was detected (ρ=−0.483,p<0.01\rho = -0.483, p < 0.01), indicating that unfavorable work environment conditions tend to cause job dissatisfaction. The findings highlight the importance of implementing strategies such as improving group cohesion, democratic leadership, and organizational clarity. This research underscores the work environment as a key factor in the good health and high productivity of workers, advocating for the provision of both theoretical and practical tools to optimize the environment in educational organizations.
