INTRODUCTION
Conceptual Framework and Variate Structure:
1.1 Independent Variable
1.1.1 Organizational Climate
"The climate here stinks / morale is low, no one seems to want to produce, my work
is not challenging, and my colleagues don't stimulate me". The employee making
these comments was definitely not referring to the weather by using the word climate.
Thus climate, in the natural sense, is referred to as the average course or condition of the
weather at a place over a period of a year as exhibited by temperature, wind, velocity, and precipitation.
The term 'climate' is also used to designate the quality of the internal environment
which conditions in turn the quality of cooperation, the development of the
individual, the extent of member's dedication or commitment to organizational
purpose, and the efficiency with which that purpose becomes translated into results.
Climate is the atmosphere in which individuals help, judge, reward, constrain,
and find out about each other. It influences morale and the attitudes of the individual
toward his work and his environment
