Abstract: The main objectives of this study have been to determine the relationship of cultural variables with job satisfaction and stress, and also to see the effects of cultural variables on job satisfaction and stress. In order to complete the study a sample comprising 100 associates of Delhi Metro Rail Corporation was selected. The sample consisted of executives and nonexecutives. The study focuses on the various dimensions of organizational culture and their interrelationship with job satisfaction and job stress. Pearson's correlation has been applied to study interrelationship between organizational culture and job satisfaction, cultural variables and also stress. The results reveal that there is a significant negative correlation between power orientedness and job satisfaction to a significant level. At the same time, the study has further revealed a significant positive correlation between organizational risk-taking and stress. Regression was applied to see the effect of power-orientedness on job satisfaction. The study shows a significant positive effect of organizational risk-taking on stress.
