The purpose of the study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the instrument Identification of Psychosocial Risk Factors and Evaluation of the Organizational Environment (GRIII), proposed in 2018 by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security (STPS) in NOM-035-STPS- 2018, in a company in northern Mexico. Construct validity was considered with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), Structural Equation Modeling, and reliability levels with Cronbach's Alpha and Omega. A census was carried out with 403 workers. The results determine that the instrument is not valid to evaluate the dimensions of a poor relationship with supervised collaborators, of the work relationships domain of the Leadership and work relationships category, and emotional psychological loads of the workload domain of the activity factors category, and the use of other instruments and methodologies are fundamentally suggested. The authors highlight the scarce national reports on the psychometric properties of the instrument.
