Evaluation of standard 035 for the measurement of psychosocial risk factors in the mexican workplace environment Evaluación de la norma 035 para la medición de los factores de riesgo psicosocial en el entorno laboral mexicano

Work stress and its impact on mental health have become a global issue. To address psychosocial risk factors in the workplace, the Mexican government introduced the Official Mexican Standard 035 (NOM-035) in October 2018. The NOM-035 includes questionnaires to assess employees' level of psychological risk while performing their job duties. This study examines the validity and reliability of the second measurement instrument in the NOM-035. The questionnaire was administered to 434 employees, and after several statistical tests, the results indicate that the instrument may not accurately identify Mexican employees at high psychological risk. © 2019 Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Facultad de Contaduría y Administración.
