INTRODUCTION

Organizational climate is comprised of mixture of norms, values, expectations, policies and procedures that influence work motivation, commitment and ultimately, individual and work unit performance. Positive climate encourages, while negative climates inhibits discretionary effort. Organizational climate refers to the quality of working environment. If people feel that they are valued and respected within the organization, they are more likely to contribute positively to the achievements of the business outcomes. Creating a healthy organizational climate requires attention to the factors which influence employees perceptions, including the quality of leadership, the way in which decisions are made and whether the efforts of employees are recognized. In fact Climate may be thought of as the perceptions of the characteristics of an organization. Climate for an organization is somewhat like the personality for a person. Just as every individual has a personality that makes each person unique, each organization has an organizational climate that clearly distinguishes its personality from other organization. Every organization is different and has a unique feeling and character beyond its structural characteristics. Thus every organization deals with its member in a distinct way through its policies on allocations of resources, communication pattern, reward and penalty, leadership and decision making style, etc. The organizational policy and conviction with regard to all these and a cluster of other related activities influence the feelings, attitudes and behavior of its members and results in the creation of the unique organizational climate. The content of organizational climate has varied widely and they include almost all the important aspect of organizations such as structure, communication, leadership, Conflicts, reward system, inter personal relationships organizational effectiveness, reasonability and so forth. It has been pointed out that the contents of the climate constructed by various researches overlap wit many other major concepts in

organizational behavior Glick, 1985). Such overlaps seems to have promoted researchers to raise the question how the concept of climate is different from other organizational variables, especially, structure and job satisfaction.

IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE:

Organizational climate has a major influence on human performance through its impact on individual motivation and job satisfaction. It does this by carrying certain kinds of expectancies about what consequences will follow from different actions. Individuals in the organization have certain expectations and fulfillment of these expectations depend upon their perception as to how the organizational climate suits to the satisfaction of their needs. Thus organizational climate provides a type of work environment in which individuals feels satisfied or dissatisfied. Since satisfaction of individual goes a long way in determining his efficiency, organizational climate can be said to be directly related with his performance in the organization.

Affects Motivation, Productivity and Job satisfaction: Organizational climate can have a major influence on motivation, productivity and job satisfaction. Climate determines the action and it creates few expectations as to consequences. Employees expect certain rewards, penalties, satisfaction or frustrations based on the organizational climate and their expectations tend to lead to motivation as said in expectancy theory.

Contingency Relationship: There is a contingency relationship between climate and the organization. The climate of an organization is contingent upon the type of employees. The type related to employees education like technical workers, knowledge workers. For example, research institutes certainly want a climate different from that of a workshop or an office.

Social System: Organizational climate represents the entire social system of a work-group. It is clearly a system concept. There are two important aspects of climate: (1) workplace itself and (2) Personal treatment of Management. If employees feel satisfied while at work and if climate provides a sense of personal worth, it can be assumed that in that organization is favorable. Employees expect the management to feel and care about their needs and problems. If these two are favorable a good climate prevails in the organization. A high level of organizational climate is necessary for the development of organization. Good climate attracts good and efficient to the organization, who contribute to the productivity of the organization.

DIMENSIONS OF ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE:

Organizational climate have used data relating to individual perception of organizational properties in identifying organizational climate. Denison (1996) argues that developing a universal set of dimensions was often the central issue of the climate researchers so that comparative studies could be made possible in different organizational settings. He compared this approach to that of the culture research that used a post-modem perspective which examined the qualitative aspects of individual social contexts where each culture that was seen as unique and was not expected to have generalisable qualities which had become central to the climate research. Jones and James (19790 argued that one of the assumptions of the climate literature is that a relatively limited number of dimensions could characterise a wide cross-section of social settings. Jones and James labelled their factors as follows: Conflict and ambiguity, which reflected perceived conflict in organizational goals and objectives, combined with ambiguity of organizational structure and roles, a lack of interdepartmental cooperation, and poor communication from management. Also included

were poor planning, inefficient job design, a lack of awareness of employee needs and problems, and a lack of fairness and objectivity in the rewards process. Job challenge, importance and variety, which reflected a job perceived as challenging, which involve a variety of duties, including dealing with other people. The job was seen as providing autonomy and feedback, and demanding high standards of quality and performance. Leader facilitation and support, which reflected perceived leader behaviors such as the extent to which the leader was seen as helping to accomplish work goals by means of scheduling activities, planning, etc., as well as the extent to which he was perceived as facilitating interpersonal relationships and providing personal support. Workgroup cooperation, friendliness, and warmth, which generally described relationships among group members and their pride in the workgroup. Professional and organizational esprit, which reflected perceived external image and desirable growth potential offered by the job. Also included were perceptions of an open atmosphere to express ones feelings and thoughts, confidence in the leader, and consistently applied organizational policies, combined with nonconflicting roles expectations and reduced job pressure. Job standards, which reflected the degree to which the job was seens as having rigid standards of quality and accuracy, combined with inadequate time, manpower, training and resources to complete the task.

How products are manufactured The technique used for manufacturing the components is moldings by the help of machines. The Rubber is got from kerala. The necessary oil, paints, chemicals like sulfur are brought from outside and stored in the storage area. Certain substances like 1. Silicon mixes 2. Acrylic mixes 3. Paints are stored in air conditioned room. The temperature of the room is about 25 + or - 4 degree centigrade. The policy that they are using is FIRST IN AND FIRST OUT service which means whatever that comes in first goes out. This is indicated by the green colored tag that is kept on the place of the storage. The first section where manufacturing process starts is called MILLING section. Here the rubbers are first put in the Kneaders and mixed well with other chemicals. The Kneaders (Machine name) are of two types. One is the SLACH Kneader and the other is the MORIYAMMA Kneader. The product that is obtained is put in the mixing mills in order to get the rubber in the form of sheets. The milling machine consists of two rollers rotating in opposite directions and if we put the rubber in that we can get an even rubber sheet. It then goes to the IP stores. It is the place where they cut the rubber in required sizes and shapes (slug) which can be used for moulding purposes. The machine that they are using above is called is STRAINERS. It then goes to the moulding section.

11

Here there are various types of presses used for moulding. They are 1. Jawahar press 2. Compression presses 3. Ejector type 4. Jai press 5. Hanchang 200 ton presses

The basic concept is they keep the slug in the mould cavity and close them and apply corresponding pressure and temperature to form the required mould. The press generally consists of a top plate, bottom plate and a bolster plate and mostly ejector pins. Each press has different mould cavity and so different temperature, pressure and curing time (the time that it takes to mould). After the moulding process is complete they check whether the mould is good or suffering from any defect. The major defects are, 1. Air lock 2. Line mark 3. Tearing 4. Blow 5. Excess flash

The defect products are torn and kept in a separate box. It goes to the inspection and if necessary goes to shot blasting area. There are two shot blasting machines 26:14 and 26:18 to make the material harder and more gripper. Besides these the other machines are, 1. Calendar: It helps to form rolls and used in hose production and in some textile industry. 2. Roll covering: It helps to form rolls of rubber over a product. 3. Extruder: It is used to form thin tubes of rubber.

The boilers are used to maintain pressure and temperature for the presses.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

15

Organizational climate is a relative enduring characteristic of an organization which distinguishes it from other organization: (a) and embodies members collective perceptions about their organization with respect to such dimensions as autonomy, trust, cohesiveness, support, recognition, innovation and fairness: (b) is produced by members interaction; (c) serves as a basis for interpreting the situation; (d) reflects the prevalent norms, values and attitudes of the organizations culture; and (e) acts as a source of influence for shaping behavior. (Moran and Volkwein, 1992, p.2) Francese (1993) who examined the effect of climate in service responsiveness; Meudell and Gadd (1994) who studied climate and culture in short life organizations; and Vallen (1993) who was concerned about organizational climate and service staff burnout. Organisational cliate has much to offer in terms of its ability to explain the behaviour of people in the workplace. Ashforth (1985, p. 838) put forward the view that climate has the potential to facilitate a truly integrative science of organizational behaviour,. Schneider later discussed in terms of: The atmosphere that employees perceive is created in their organizations by practices, procedures and rewards Employees observe what happens to them (and around them) and then draw conclusions about the organizations priorities. They then sit their own priorities accordingly. (Schneider, 1994, p. 18) Schneider, Brief and Guzzo (1996, p.9) argue that sustainable organizational change is most assured when both the climate what the organizations, members experience and the culture what the organizations members believe the organization values change.

Early Formulations of the climate construct

16

The concept of climate can be traced back to the work of Lewin, Lippitt and White (1939) and a work entitled Patterns of aggressive behaviour in experimentally created social climates (Denison, 1996; Schneider, 1990). The Lewin et. Al. (1939) study investigated the relationship between leadership style and climate, a factor that has remained central to the concept, Joyce and Slocum (1982) trace the concept back to the studies of Koffka (1935) on behaviour environment; Lewins (1936) study on life space; and Murrays (1938) work on organizational climate. Lewins (1951) approach to climate was conceptualized by the relationship between individuals, their social environment and how that is set in a framework. Lewin expressed this in terms of simple equation: B = f (P.E.) in which B = Behaviour, E= Environment, and P = the person It is clear from Lewins equation that the concept of climate takes a psychological approach, focusing upon the individual and seeking to understand the cognitive processes and behaviour. Lewins conceptualization of the theory provides the underpinnings of many studies and approaches to climate research.

Three approaches to the climate construct

James and Jones (1974) conducted a major review of the theory and research on organizational climate ad identified climate in three separate ways that were not mutually exclusive, (a) multiple measurement organizational attribute approach, (b) perceptual measurement organizational attribute approach, and (c) the perceptual measurement individual attribute approach. In the multiple measurement organizational approach james and jones cite forehand and Gilmer (1964) as defining organizational climate as a defining organizational climate as a set of characteristics that describe an organization and that (a) distinguish the organization from other organizations (b) are relatively enduring over time, and (c) influence the behavior of people in the organization.

17

Schneider and Bartlett (1968) had proposed four organizational climate dimensions, Individual autonomy: based on the factors of the individual responsibility, agent interdependence, rules orientation and opportunities for exercising individual initiative. The degree of structure imposed upon the position: based on the factors of structure, managerial structure and the closeness of supervision. Reward orientation: based upon the factors of reward, general satisfaction, promotional-achievement orientation, and being profit minded and sales oriented. Consideration, warmth and support: based upon the factors of managerial support, nurturing of subordinates and warmth and support. In reviewing psychological climate as a set of perceptually based, psychological attributes Jones and James (1979) noted that the process reflected the developments that had occurred in the conceptualization of climate and the nature of its major influences. They propose that psychological climate: (a) refers to the individuals cognitively based description of the situation; (b) involves a psychological processing of specific perceptions into more abstract depictions of the psychologically meaningful influences in the situation; (c) tends to be closely related to situational characteristics that have relatively direct and immediate ties to the individual experience; and (d) is multidimensional, with a central core of dimensions that apply across a variety of situations(through additional dimensions might be need to better describe particular situations. (Jones and James, 1979, p.205)

Schneider and Hall (1972) describe climate as a global perception held by individuals about their own organizational environment.

18

Schneider and Snyder (1975) further clarified the approach by defining climate as a summary perception which individuals form of (or about) an organization. For them it is a global impression of the organization.

Development of Climate Instruments

Current instruments include Patterson, Payne and west (1996) Business Organisation Climate Index that consists of 28 item scales however only eight were used because of the length. Kozlowski and Dohertys (1989) instrument uses 55 measures consisting of 11 sub-scales that overlaps with Jones and James (1979). Joyce and Slocum (1982) used the same measures as Pritchard & Karasick (1973) with 10 dimensions that were factor analysed and reduced to six. Drexlers (1977) survey of operations that was based upon Taylor and Bowers (1972) a composite of several other instruments. Likerts (1976) profile of organizational characteristics. Ryder and Southey (1190) used the James and Jones (1979) questionnaire as the basis for their instrument which they applied to employees with a large public building construction and maintenance authority in Australia. Modifications to the original instrument were threefold, consisting of modifications to the wording, scaling and presentation format. Ryder and Southey judged the scaling of the original instunment to be unsatisfactory. Climate researchers typically placed greater emphasis on organizational members perceptions of observable practices and procedures that are closer to the surface of organizational life and categorization of these practices and perceptions into analytic dimensions defined by the researchers. (Denison, 1996, pp. 621 622). The studies have claimed that climate has a considerable impact upon organizational effectiveness.

RESEARCH METHODOLGY
RESEARCH DESIGN:

19

The study is descriptive research study. The main purpose of descriptive research is description of the state of affairs as it exists at present. In the present study, descriptive method is used to study the prevailing organizational climate. DATA COLLECTION METHOD: The primary data was collected through a well structured questionnaire with close-ended questions measures at 5-point likert type scale and suggestion questions. Secondary data required for the project was collected from the company records and Internet. SAMPLING PLAN: Simple convenience sampling method is used. Sample size consists of 100 respondents.

STATISTICAL TOOLS: Simple percentage analysis and tabulation is used to analysis the data. Bar diagram is used to give pictorial representation to the analysis. The following test was used for the study. Standard deviation ANOVA

PERCENTAGE ANALYSIS: Percentage refers to a special kind of ratio. Percentage is used in making comparison about two or more series of data. Percentage as also used to describe relationship. It is also used to compare the relative terms dx of two or more series of data.

20

Formula: Number of respondents x 100 Total no. of respondent STANDARD DEVIATION: Karl Pearson introduced the concept of Standard Deviation is 1893. It is the most important measure of dispersion and is widely used in many statistical formulae. It is defined as positive squares-root of the arithmetic mean of the squares of the deviations of the given observation from their arithmetic mean. The standard deviation by the Greek Letter (sigma) Formula:

ANOVA:

( X x)

/N

The analysis of variance frequently referred to by the contraction ANOVA is a statistical technique specially designed to test whether the means of more than two quantitative populations are equal. The analysis of variance technique developed by R.A. Fisher in 1920s diversified practical problems. Basically, it consists of classifying and cross classifying statistical results and testing whether the means of a specified classification differ significantly. In this way it is determined whether the given classification is important in affecting the results. In one way classifications the data are classified according to only one criterion. The null hypothesis is H0=M1=M2=M3=.MK. H1=M1=M2=M3=.....MK. 21

CONCLUSION

Climate is the atmosphere of the organization, a relatively enduring quality of the internal environment of an organization, which is experienced by its members and influences their behavior. Organizational climate may affect quality of service and employees commitment and involvement towards the organization. Climate dimensions in one way or other affect the level of organizational climate. It is need to be taken into account while evaluating the organizational effectiveness. Climate surveys are studies of

99

employees' perceptions and perspectives of an organization. The surveys address attitudes and concerns that help the organization work with employees to instill positive changes. In general, they are aimed at all aspects of the employees' jobs. The study analyzes everything from an employee's workload to their relationships with coworkers and superiors to their salary to company policies and anything in between. The study shows that that there is no significant difference between culture dimensions and organizational climate.
