Abstract
This study aimed to assess the prevailing organizational climate and the level of creative behaviour in the tannery of the upper plateaus from the employees' point of view and to determine whether there is a statistically significant effect of the organizational climate on its creative behaviour. A questionnaire was designed and distributed to a random sample to achieve the study's objectives (36.45% of the size of the study population), where the response rate was (94.28%). The organizational climate and creative behaviour of the institution under study were measured using a set of statistical tools such as arithmetic averages, standard deviations, ratios, and averages, as well as correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination. The results of the study showed that the employees' evaluation of the organizational climate and creative behaviour is positive and that there is a statistically significant effect at the level of significance (α < 0.05) of the organizational climate in its dimensions on the creative behaviour of the employees in the institution under study. One of the study's most important recommendations is to strengthen the current working environment and increase its ability to embrace creative behaviour, increase interest in the human element, and give appropriate incentives.
