The main objective of this research study was to explore the relationship between human resource development climate dimensions as well as demographic variables and job satisfaction, among health care professionals in public healthcare settings, in Saudi Arabia. A sample of 250 usable questionnaires was collected and it was utilized for the analysis. The results revealed that 69.2% of variation in job satisfaction was due to the HRD climate dimensions. It also indicated that both HRD Mechanisms and OCTAPAC culture reported the highest impact on job satisfaction and on the contrary, general climate exercised very low impact and did not have significant impact on job satisfaction among healthcare professionals. Results, for MANOVA tests, depicting demographic variables, have also been discussed. |
