Abstract: In recent years, organizational climate and work-life balance have been the subject of studies investigating their relationship and how they impact the workers and the organizations. Several researchers have cited that organization climate as perceived by employees, including norms, values and processes that direct the workers on how they do their jobs and make them adapt to their work environment. On the other hand, the meaning of work-life balance has evolved over the years and now includes work and non-work aspects of a worker’s life including leisure and socialization. In education, the school leaders, specifically the school heads, have gargantuan responsibilities in running and managing schools. They are prone to stress, burnout, fatigue and other mental health issues. Their degree of work-life balance may be affected or related to how they perform their duties as directed by the climate of the educational organization. This study aims to investigate the organizational climate as perceived by the school heads of Marinduque province. This study used the quantitative – descriptive method of research. The standardized Organizational Climate Questionnaire and Work-Life Balance Scale were used to measure elements of organizational climate and the degree of work-life balance. The data gathered was analysed using statistical analysis such as frequency distribution in categorizing their demographic profile while t-test, Mean, Pearson Product Correlation Coefficient and Multiple Linear Regression were used to interpret the results of the questionnaires. Based on the results, there is a significant relationship between most of the dimensions of the organizational climates and work life balance except the aspect of Managing Self. Lastly, it was established in this study that organizational climate is a predictor of work life balance. The results can useful in designing a wellbeing program that would be beneficial to public education leaders.
