Objectives: To obtain reliable indicators of the job descriptive index (JDI) through a factorial analysis. Methods: A psychometric study was conducted. The JDI is composed of 72 items grouped in five dimensions: general work, salary, partners, supervision and promotion. In addition a general scale measures overall satisfaction. The samples size was 166 workers of three public health institutions in Lima. Factorial analysis and internal consistency analysis with the omega coefficient were carried-out. Results: The dimensions worked properly. The items showed good discriminatory capacity. Reliability indicators were 0.86 and 0.94. Conclusions: JDI is adequate to evaluate conditions at work. The complementary scale need to be re-evaluated.
