Abstract: This paper analyzes how some conditions of schooling impacts on two factors of organizational development. The first is job satisfaction and the second is organizational commitment. Maquiladora industry workers from the State of Zacatecas was selected. The sample includes three levels of labor: administrative, supervisors and operators. With this information, we locate some conditions that persist in the diverse workers of this industry. Because the original questionnaire is broad, some scales are generated that allow the Labor Satisfaction factor to be reduced to five indicators. In a similar way the organizational commitment is reduced to another five. The results show that schooling is positively related to the indicators, which generates a commitment of educational institutions to support workers or students before working. Correlations of relationships with their superiors and to their peers are highlighted. By organizational commitment, labor stability as well as flexibility are found within the optimal values. Previous education that workers have, is a motivator for the socioeconomic mobility
