ABSTRACT The working world has changed significantly over the past ten years, and when in Latin America the absence of scientific development in human resource management is accused in advanced regions (eg Europe, North America, Japan, Australia) has created a new paradigm: Workplace Skills for Professional Excellence, located in the center to the people and the organization as a site of stimulation of lifelong learning, personal potential here is the most precious heritage. In this paper we review some background about the working world and their demands and present a Structural Model for Competencies for Productivity (MECPRO) for the management of human resources, useful for its structural view and the possibility of becoming a competitive tool for easy application and versatile as the organizational context.
