Objective: To determine the association between psychosocial risk factors and workplace violence among health personnel in the Ambato District - Ecuador. Method: Descriptive observational. Results and conclusions: 58.7% experience psychological demands due to the workload. It is determined that there are a series of psychosocial factors that significantly affect workers, both in their performance and in their mental health with the development of work stress; however, violence is a factor that is also significantly present, especially the psychological one, therefore, it shows many similarities with the findings of this study, in relation to the presence of psychological violence represented in work violence and it is related to insecurity as one of the causal factors.
