The healthcare industry across the globe is facing sever workforce shortage which is only likely to increase in future. India would need atleast 4.3 million nurses by 2024 owing to its large population, increasing incidence of disease and people needing medical needs. Climatic factors like supportive work culture, working conditions, justified work distribution, transparency etc. affect employee satisfaction. It is believed that the majority of the challenges faced by the Indian healthcare can be addressed through organisational climate. This research aims to study the influence of organisational climate on job satisfaction and intention to stay of nursing staff. Researcher surveyed 285 nursing professionals working at Maharaja Agrasen Hospital, Punjabi Bagh and Dwarka, India. Findings of the study established a direct and statistically significant link between organisational climate and both job satisfaction and nurse's intention to stay. Also, factors other than organisational climate also affected job satisfaction and intention to leave. Findings of this research were similar to findings of several of the previous researchers. Further research is needed to identify other factors which might influence job satisfaction and intention to stay.
