dc.description.abstract	Organisational climate, de¢ned as psychological atmosphere, was measured by means of 14 climate and four managerial support dimensions. Salutogenic functioning, referring to the origins of psychological health, was measured as the constructs sense of coherence, self-e⁄cacy and locus of control. A representative sample of 245 mining personnel was used. Climate correlates signi¢cantly with sense of coherence and locus of control, and through these, with self-e⁄cacy. It is recommended that Industrial Psychologists can act as facilitators in improving organisational climate by monitoring and enhancing the level of salutogenic functioning amongst its managers and sta¡ members.	en
