Abstract

The purpose of this research is to establish how the organizational climate and job satisfaction in an Ecuadorian company in the construction sector are linked. As a tool to determine organizational climate factors, the instrument previously validated by Ortega-Santos (2018) was used and in the case of the measurement of job satisfaction factors, the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionari (MSQ) instrument was implemented. The two instruments were applied to 250 workers in a company in the construction sector in Ecuador. Methodologically, a correlation study was carried out between the dimensions of climate and satisfaction. It was found that there is a positive relationship between both constructs, concluding that the dimensions of the organizational climate that have the greatest impact on job satisfaction are: reward and leadership. Studies of this order are relevant for organizations since it allows them to propose and execute action plans to improve the organizational climate and job satisfaction in their employees.
