Abstract: The current study focuses on psychological climate of an organisation as a predictor of the level of job satisfaction of its employees. It draws upon literatures that suggest two variables, namely, organisational commitment and job involvement identified to provide a model that caused mediation in the association between psychological climate and job satisfaction. The study takes into account India, a country most amenable for the purpose leading to a study that focuses upon the association between the variables from the perspective of neo-liberalisation wherein new management thoughts and ideas were made accessible to Indian organisations. The study draws heavily upon previous studies made by the pioneer in this field namely, Jai B.P. Sinha. Data collected for the purpose of this study were subjected to goodness of-fit tests using SEM procedure. It was concluded that psychological climate indeed makes and indirect prediction of job satisfaction through organisational commitment as well as job involvement as the significant mediators.
