Work conditions and environments are permanently modified, denoting changes that may induce the prevalence of risk factors associated with different factors in the work environment. In this sense, psychosocial risks constitute a constantly growing problem and banking institutions are not exempt from this trend. Therefore, the objective of this research is to analyze the psychosocial risks to which the bank workers of a cooperative in the city of Chone, Manabí Ecuador are exposed and thus determine which is the area with the highest level of psychosocial risk and identify which ones they are the main causes of stress in workers. An investigative instrument categorized into 9 items was used, according to the methodology proposed in the FPSICO 4.0 tool proposed by INSST-Spain, with a sample of 30 participants. It is concluded that, although the policies for the regulation and control of occupational risks set out the measures that must be adopted by the institutions according to the nature of their activities, nevertheless, an important sector of the organizations does not execute them and therefore, a perception of workers is presented that shows shortcomings in the care and prevention of working conditions.
