Religion pervades all aspects of human life. Even in communities where a growing number of people deny the existence or belief in any form of supreme power, allegiance to religious groups is anything but uncommon. Managers of global companies are increasingly confronted with managing religious sentiments at the workplace. Three hundred (300) employees from various organizations in Karnataka state of India were sampled for this study. The data was systematized, organized and analyzed using Microsoft excel and SPSS. Correlations and regression analysis were run to establish the relationship among dependent and independent variables. The results showed that the level employees’ religiosity has a strong impact on OCB. Organizational climate also was proved to be a significant moderating variable in the relationship between OCB and religiosity at the workplace
