Abstract
Abstract The most difficult part about ethical climate in the workplace is its outcomes on job satisfaction, organization commitment and turnover intention. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the moderating role of ethical climate between job satisfaction and organizational commitment on one hand and between job satisfaction and turnover intention on the other hand. This study surveyed 174 employees in travel agencies in Alexandria. The study detected the role of ethical climate between the three variables; job satisfaction, organization commitment and turnover intention. The results revealed that there is a positive relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment and a negative one between job satisfaction and turnover intention in the presence of ethical climate.
