Abstract
Purpose of the study: Twenty-first century has brought some fundamental changes in all types of organizations. Higher education is one being the most effected. The purpose of the current study was to explore such Work Climate dimensions that contribute towards job satisfaction in higher education institutes of Pakistan.
Methodology: Descriptive statistics were selected for data collection through two adapted questionnaires. These questionnaires were about Job Satisfaction named as Mohrman- Cokke-Mohrman Job Satisfaction Scale (MCMJSS) and Organizational Climate Questionnaire (OCQ). A sample of 386 Private Universities’ Staff was randomly selected from the five provinces of Pakistan. The data was analyzed in SPSS through Pearson correlation.
Main Findings: It revealed that all the Work Climate Dimensions were significantly correlated with job satisfaction. However, dimensions of respect, communication, innovation, direction, training, and learning were least significantly correlated as compared to the dimensions role clarity, reward system, career development, commitment, and moral, and lastly, teamwork and support. These have the highest level of correlation with job satisfaction.
Applications of this study: This research will help to improve the standards of Higher Education Institutes in Pakistan in terms of job satisfaction of the employees. Considering the findings of the study, administrators can help improve their employees' satisfaction. It is also suggested that in-depth research may be carried out involving the same variables for extensive understanding.
Novelty/Originality of this study: Educational organizations have always been an important part of the society as they provide society with the future workforce. Though such kind of studies have been conducted on other organizations, it is the first of its kind conducted in higher education institutes especially an education-wise developing country like Pakistan.
