The study examined the effect of two constituents of work environment (i.e. physical
and psychosocial on employees’ job satisfaction and performance, and
organizational effectiveness in a sample of 360 technical supervisors and operating
core personnel. The analyses revealed that participants who perceived their work
environment as to be adequate and favourable scored comparatively higher on
the measures of job satisfaction, performance, and perceived organizational
effectiveness. The two constituents of work environment were also found causing
significant variance in employees’ job behaviour and their perception of
organizational effectiveness. Regression analyses revealed that among the various
components of work environment, working condition, welfare provisions,
interpersonal relations, and trust and support predominantly contribute to employees’
job behaviour and organizational effectiveness. The results also specified that
psycho-social environment in work-place exert more impact on employees’ job
behaviour and organizational effectiveness than the physical environment does.
