Resumen
La felicidad es una emoción natural en las personas y, según diferentes autores, esta
puede ser considerada como el objetivo principal en la vida de los individuos. Es debido a
esto que es de suma importancia poder crear entornos y situaciones para fomentar la
felicidad, no solo en el ámbito personal sino también laboral. Hoy en día, la felicidad es un
tema creciente y de cada vez mayor importancia para las organizaciones, ya que, según
diversos estudios, una persona feliz con su trabajo tiene mejores rendimientos y esto es
medible en su productividad y forma de trabajo.
La presente investigación se enfoca en el área comercial de distribuidoras de una
empresa de consumo masivo, y comprende la medición de la felicidad organizacional y el
análisis de la relación que se tiene con las variables de género, edad, tiempo de trabajo,
puesto de trabajo, estado civil y grado de instrucción; así como de las dimensiones o factores
contemplados: positividad y sentido, relaciones confiables, desarrollo profesional,
compromiso, logro y reconocimiento, trabajo en equipo, ayuda de superiores y necesidades
básicas. De la misma manera se realizó la medición general del nivel de Felicidad
Organizacional en la población escogida, así como la comparación entre las variables
mencionadas.
La investigación realizada es descriptiva con un enfoque cuantitativo y fue realizada
en una muestra 201 trabajadores, inferido de una población total de 400 empleados en Lima
Metropolitana. La investigación tuvo como instrumento base la Escala de Felicidad
Organizacional de Singh y Aggarwal (2017). Los resultados obtenidos de la investigación
realizada dieron un nivel general de Felicidad Organizacional de la población de 4.11, lo que
significa un alto grado de Felicidad Organizacional, los principales factores determinantes de
esta fueron compromiso (4.4) y positividad y sentido (4.36). Finalmente, según los resultados
obtenidos y al analizar lo que esto significa para el sector estudiado, se plantean diferentes recomendaciones según cada dimensión estudiada, con el fin de promover planes de acción
para mejorar el nivel de Felicidad Organizacional en las distribuidoras estudiadas, las cuales
podrían ser replicadas en un futuro por diferentes entidades del mismo sector.
