Iraq Institutions (Public sector) have highly skilled individuals as a significant asset but they are still suffering from several problems in their workplace; organizational climate may be one of the most important factors that have a strong positive or negative effect. The current quantitative study seeks to examine the effect of organizational climate on perceived organizational support, job satisfaction and job stress. The theoretical framework is supporting the management and superiors in Iraqi Ministry of Electricity (The headquarter in Baghdad) to understand the nature of organizational climate which would reflect a general view of other public institutions. The survey has been distributed among superiors and subordinates in Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. The convenience sample includes one hundred and nineteen employees (N= 119) from different departments. The sample that represents the community of this study (MOE) shows that the majority of the respondents are males (57%), it's also shows that the highest percentage of the educational qualification is that 76.5% of employees have a university degree. The result of regression analysis reveals that a positive organizational climate has a significant positive effect on: perceived organizational support (β = .67, p < .05), job satisfaction (β = .64, p < .05) and a negative effect on job stress (β = -.44, p < .05). Thus, the hypotheses of the study are supported. This study produces improvements to the public sector based on the outcome of the study to progress organizational efficiency especially in Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. Also, it contributes the wealth of literature on organizational climate, perceived organizational support, job satisfaction, and job stress.
