An analysis of current research areas on the features of the category “trust” and “trust in the organization” is conducted. The empirical part of the article presents the results of a study based on the study of a sample represented by employees of an industrial enterprise, with a total number of 194 people aged 20 to 45 years.

Fesenko) and the Methodology for Assessing the Level of Trust in the Organization of R. Shaw (Shaw, 2000).
