Using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was confirmed an instrument of 21 items and five factors (personal development, interpersonal relationship, recognition, work nature, and work environments) to measure job satisfaction in a Mexican hospital and also we shown evidence that the same construct is appropriate for both genders with the exception that female presented higher levels of satisfaction in their job for the personal development.
