    This research aimed to determine how the permanence of the Technical Director influences the number of errors in the process of dispensing prescription and non-prescription medications in pharmaceutical offices in the district of Villa el Salvador in 2017. The research was a descriptive field study with a quantitative approach and a cross-sectional observational design. The sample was a non-probabilistic convenience sample of 66 drugstores located on the three main avenues of the Villa el Salvador district. The technique used was a survey, with the instruments being a questionnaire applied by simulated buyers in the pharmaceutical offices. The results from descriptive statistics showed that the Technical Director was present in only 33.3% (22) of the total sample. Additionally, pharmacists, on average, committed fewer dispensing errors with and without prescriptions compared to other dispensing staff. Using a Student's t-test at a 5% significance level (t=13.672, p=0.00), it was found that the permanence of the technical director significantly influences the number of errors in the medication dispensing process.
