The organizational culture is essential in influencing the attitude of employees, behavior, and performance in healthcare institutions. When it comes to the agency of private hospitals, where the quality of service and the commitment of employees is directly related to patient outcomes, it becomes necessary to comprehend the causes of job satisfaction. This paper focuses on the issue of organizational culture as a predictor of job satisfaction among healthcare professionals working in the Kerala based private hospitals. The quantitative research design was used, and the primary data were gathered using structured questionnaires on 300 healthcare employees (doctors, nurses, and administrative workers). The dimensions used to evaluate organizational culture included leadership support, communication climate, teamwork orientation and organizational values, whereas job satisfaction was evaluated using standardized levels of satisfaction. The data were analyzed using statistical tools such as descriptive analysis, correlation and multiple regression. The results demonstrate that there is significant positive correlation between job satisfaction and organizational culture and the predictors have been shown as leadership support and teamwork. The researchers find that organization culture that is supportive and collaborative leads to employee satisfaction, lower turnover intention, and better quality of service delivery in privately owned hospitals. The findings have significant implications to hospital managers wishing to enhance organizational performance by using culture-based approaches.
