While much is known about the dimensions of job satisfaction, the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational communication still remains relatively uncertain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the dimensions of job satisfaction and organizational communication. A survey was conducted to the sample of 637 blue-collar workers and the data obtained from the sample, firstly, analyzed by the principal component factor-analytic method of Varimax and then an ordinary least squares regression estimation technique in order to identify the job satisfaction and communication relationship. The study revealed a clear relationship between job satisfaction and organizational communication. Upon regression analysis, communication was observed to predict all of the dimensions of job satisfaction but especially satisfaction with the supervisor was highly explained by communication. Whilst the female employees were more satisfied with the supervisor, work itself and the rewards and payments, the inexperienced workers differed significantly from the others nearly in all the dimensions of job satisfaction except the work itself. Moreover, females were also observed that they had more positive perceptions about communication in the workplace
