Organizational climate was studied aboard thirteen U.S. Navy ships - ten minesweepers, two destroyers, and a carrier. A questionnaire tested perceptions of the men regarding four levels of shipboard working environment characteristics: the job, work supervision on the level above the job, the work group, and the organization. Responses on twenty-one climate item composites by 1,021 persons were factor analyzed yielding five factors: Friendliness and warmth of the work environment, job identification, leadership effectiveness, group homogeneity, and job standards and demands. Ships were then scored on these factors. Differences between classes of ship were found. Differences in climate scores were found to be related to the number of men reporting to sick call, accident rates, and the number of disciplinary actions. (Modified author abstract)
