Even though many years have passed, organisations continually focus on retaining Labour resources. Especially, Sri Lankan Nursing Staff tend to decrease their likelihood of continuing in hospitals, and it becomes a critical issue for the entire healthcare industry in Sri Lanka. Thus, the present study attempts to assess the impact of perceived satisfaction of the organisational climate on the intention of retention of nursing staff of a leading private hospital in Sri Lanka. The study uses a quantitative approach. The primary data were collected using a standard questionnaire, and a simple random sampling technique was used to select a sample from the population. Thus, every respondent has an equal contribution to select from the sample. 108 nursing staff in a selected leading private hospital were used as sample respondents. Correlation and regression analysis was used to analyse the gathered data. The findings of this research show a significant impact of perceived satisfaction of the organisational climate on the retention of nursing staff in a leading private hospital. The practical implications of hospitals, managers, and industrial psychologists guide favorable organizational climate physically and mentally which impact the retention decision of the nursing staff.
