The study aims to explore the impact of the strategic human resource management practices on organizational climate and organizational performance. The study used simple random sampling technique, and 387 responses have been collected finally. The primary data have been collected from professionals/managers of different manufacturing units from five divisions of West Bengal, namely Burdwan, Medinipur, Malda, Presidency and Jalpaiguri. Compensation management, employee relation and human resource planning (HRP) have positive and significant impact toward organizational climate where compensation management has greater impact compared to other factors toward organizational climate. Performance management, training and development, and recruitments and selection have negative and nonsignificant impact toward organizational climate. The study implies that proper compensation, good relationship with employees, and proper planning of human resources can improve the organizational climate, which also improves the organizational performance. The study is original as no such research has been conducted in the Indian context earlier.
