Resumen

La industria de la construcción desempeña un papel
fundamental en el desarrollo económico y la generación de empleo,
pero enfrenta desafíos de productividad laboral que se han
intensificado debido a la reciente pandemia de COVID-19. La
productividad laboral es un componente crítico de éxito, ya que
influye en la duración, los costos y la eficiencia de los proyectos.
Comprender la naturaleza de los factores que afectan la
productividad laboral es esencial para encontrar soluciones. Este
estudio examinó la literatura para identificar factores clave que
influyen en la productividad laboral, apartándose de los enfoques
analíticos convencionales. A través de un análisis de métodos
mixtos, los enfoques cualitativos de revisiones sistemáticas
identificaron factores influyentes basados en 97 documentos.
Posteriormente, se clasificaron mediante una combinación de
análisis estadístico y métodos de agrupación jerárquica que
abarcaron tanto factores internos como externos. El Índice de Valor
de Importancia permitió la clasificación de los 30 factores más
críticos, analizando tres posibles escenarios de clasificación. El
estudio encontró que el interés en investigar el tema sigue siendo
relevante y ha evolucionado con el tiempo. En los últimos años, se
ha prestado mayor atención a la mano de obra, la gestión, el entorno
de trabajo y los aspectos técnicos. Los resultados indican que los
factores internos del proyecto, como la programación, la
planificación, las consideraciones técnicas y la gestión de recursos,
son más predecibles y controlables que los factores externos. Una
gestión eficaz de los recursos y un enfoque integral son
fundamentales para optimizar la productividad de la construcción.
Los factores a nivel de proyecto, así como los materiales,
herramientas y equipos, desempeñan un papel importante. Al
sintetizar el conocimiento existente e identificar y clasificar los
factores clave de productividad, este estudio ofrece perspectivas
valiosas para profesionales de la construcción, responsables
políticos e investigadores que buscan mejorar la productividad
laboral y optimizar los resultados de los proyectos.
