This research seeks to measure the degree of homogeneity in the perception of working conditions and environmental management, in hamlets of the Cruz de Mayo peasant community: Pampacocha, Queral, Chinchay and Miramar identified for their peculiar organizational social construction; in addition to finding out the relationship between the factors mentioned above. 98 community members participated, out of a total of 546 men and women over 16 years of age; calculated the theoretical sample of 82 at e = 0.1; with a comparison scale with 4 degrees, designed in Spanish and translated into Quechua in the area. Data were obtained in 4 months, with the support of a resident of Queral. Results: According to the data collected, there is a significant relationship at 0.01 between the factors working conditions and environmental management (r = 0.422, Pearson coefficient) with the bivariate correlation. There is a significant relationship between working conditions per farmhouse, at a significance level of 0.019 for ANOVA; and there is no difference due to the significance level of 0.700 of the management of the environment by farmhouse. In conclusion, we point out that: 1) there is a significant relationship between working conditions and environmental management; 2) significant differences are found between the working conditions by farmhouse given the existence of a unique social construction of each farmhouse; 3) there are no differences between the villages in the management of the environment, which is attributed to the social and organizational construction of the community; that is to say, it constitutes a competence of the community, not from the farmhouse.
