The aim of this research is to understand the correlation between job flexibility and dedication, intellectual challenge and the work environment that people perceive in their workplace. A quantitative research was carried out during November 2018. An online questionnaire of 38 items was administered to a sample of 282 Mexican workers from the city of Monterrey, Nuevo León in Mexico. Findings indicate that 95.4 % of interviewees showed an interest for at least one of the flexible work variants. The open space work modality was the least desirable with a 7.8 % preference. A positive correlation between work environment and a positive balance due to flexible work was found. The working environment similarly showed a high positive correlation with dedication and intellectual challenge. The foregoing findings are of interest to the current context for human resource strategies and the business environment. Las empresas han integrado estrategias de flexibilidad como parte importante en los procesos de recursos humanos, principalmente como un componente más de su salario emocional. El objetivo de esta investigación fue establecer de qué manera la flexibilidad laboral se relaciona con la dedicación, el reto intelectual y el ambiente laboral que perciben las personas en su lugar de trabajo. Se realizó una investigación de tipo cuantitativo durante el mes de noviembre de 2018, en el que se aplicó un cuestionario en línea de 38 reactivos, obteniendo una muestra de 282 trabajadores mexicanos de la ciudad de Monterrey, Nuevo León, México. El 95.4 % de los entrevistados manifestaron interés por al menos una de las variantes de trabajo flexible. La modalidad de trabajo en espacios abiertos fue la opción menos aceptada, con una preferencia del 7.8 %. Se encontró correlación positiva entre el ambiente laboral y el balance positivo por trabajo flexible. El ambiente laboral también mostró alta correlación positiva con la dedicación y el reto intelectual. Lo anterior resulta de interés en el contexto actual para las estrategias de recursos humanos y el ambiente empresarial.
