El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar el impacto de algunas facetas de la satisfacción laboral sobre el desempeño de un grupo de policías. Participaron 242 personas de una corporación de seguridad pública. Se realizó análisis discriminante tomando en consideración los aspectos teóricos que están relacionados con el desempeño: satisfacción con el trabajo mismo, relaciones con compañeros, relaciones con el jefe y salario y prestaciones. Una tercera parte de los policías reportaron baja satisfacción laboral general. Los niveles más bajos se reportaron en relación a la naturaleza misma del trabajo. Los cuatro factores de la satisfacción laboral se relacionaron de manera estadísticamente significativa con el desempeño. El aspecto que cobró mayor relevancia fueron las relaciones con los compañeros de trabajo. Las relaciones con los compañeros cobran una importancia fundamental no sólo en el desempeño laboral, sino también en atenuar los riesgos que tal labor implica.Resumen alternativo:The aim of this paper was to assess the impact of some facets of job satisfaction on the performance of a group of 242 police officers. Discriminant analysis was used taking into consideration theoretical aspects related with job performance: job satisfaction in general, relationships with coworkers, relationships with superiors and salary and benefits. One third of the cops was found with low generalized job satisfaction, where lowest levels were in relationship with the nature of the job. The four factors of job satisfaction had statistical significance in relationship with performance. The aspect with higher relevance was coworker's relationships. They take fundamental importance not only in job performance, but also in moderate risks associated with the job.
