Theoretical construction of sustainable social awareness in mexican organizations

Abstract

This article gives an account of the qualitative research process under the Grounded Theory strategy to generate a substantive theoretical construct called Sustainable Social Culture from instrumental records product of an immersion in the field in four industrial units (Martínez, 2020). The first findings raised questions that led to delving into the way in which industrial workers exercise agency and reflexivity in terms of sustainability. This theoretical construct rests on the Sociology of Organizations, Organizational Culture and Environmental Management that contribute to integrating categorical dimensions for their subsequent theorization and conceptual integration whose consistency, internal logic and validity are evidenced.
