The self-perception of success is considered as a feeling of personal, work, economic or emotional well-being that a person experiences from the achievement of goals achieved in activities that they are passionate about. However, the study of workers has been omitted, they are usually responsible for operational development in any organization.

The purpose of this research was the design, reliability and validity of a scale of self-perception of success for collaborators of medium-sized Mexican organizations.

The reliability, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyzes show adequate internal consistency for measuring the self-perception of success, with a final scale made up of eight items (α = .805) that was validated in a sample of 225 workers belonging to six companies. Knowing the level of self-perception of success that workers manifest would allow the generation of support or reinforcement strategies to promote an increase in their safety, competence and performance in companies.

Keywords : self-perception of success; confirmatory factor analysis; measurement scale.
