Abstract: This study checks factors of work climate and psychosocial risks, and how these affect the happiness at the organizational. For this, we measured three variables (happiness, work climate and psychosocial risks) with their respective dimensions in a sample of 107 workers in the area of education in the city of Los Angeles, Chile. We applied three scales previously validated in the national average and ranked the happiness levels in ranges high and low; also we applied a binomial probit model to establish the relationships between the variables of climate organizational and psychosocial risks. The main results describe that the high levels of organizational happiness are explained by jobs with high performance standards, where workers are positively reinforced and there is flexibility with family needs.
