Abstract:

Research was devoted to the investigation of perceptions of organizational climate among government employees. The research was conducted within three functional directorates of an air materiel area of the Air Force Logistics Command. The sample population consisted of civil service employees in grades GS-9 through GS-16 and military officers of the ranks of major and colonel. Perceptions among grade levels and among organizations were compared as were the expressions of the climate the respondents would like to see prevail. A questionnaire, on profile of organizational characteristics, was utilized for data collection. In addition, several interviews with employees in all grade levels were conducted.
