Background: Today, human power has a deep connection with organization, and the dimensions of personal and organizational life of people are intertwined in a complicated way. The present study was conducted with the aim of designing a structural model of the effect of organizational climate on life satisfaction with the mediating role of job satisfaction among employees of emergency medical centers.
Methods: The present descriptive-analytical study was conducted cross-sectionally in 2021. The statistical population of the research included 270 employees of emergency medical centers in Ahvaz city, including the headquarters, urban and road bases, who were all included in the study using the census method. Data collection tools consisted of Halpin and Croft's organizational climate questionnaires, life satisfaction and Spector's job satisfaction. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling technique in Smart PLS 3 software.
Results: The findings showed that there was a significant and positive relationship between organizational climate and job satisfaction and job satisfaction and life satisfaction in emergency medical workers in Ahvaz city. Organizational climate has a significant and positive effect on life satisfaction through the mediation of job satisfaction. According to the path coefficients, the job satisfaction variable plays a mediating role in the relationship between organizational climate and life satisfaction with 0.51 units (0.776 x 0.663). The values of Standardized Root Mean Square Residual (SRMR) and Normed Fit Index (NFI) index were 0.089 and 0.571, respectively, which indicated the suitability of the presented model regarding the relationship between organizational climate, life satisfaction, and job satisfaction.
Conclusion: Considering the effect of organizational climate on life satisfaction and the mediating role of job satisfaction, it is possible to increase employees' life satisfaction by providing a favorable environment in the organization and improving job satisfaction.
