To determine the correlation between the perception of organizational climate and the safety culture in the surgery department of the José Casimiro Ulloa Emergency Hospital (HEJCU), a descriptive and correlational study was conducted with 100 healthcare professionals, using the ECO-S and MOSPS questionnaires, respectively. The correlation was analyzed using Spearman's correlation coefficient, with p<0.05 considered statistically significant. Of the total, 57% were men and 43% women; 62% were physicians and 38% nurses. The organizational climate was adequate (43%), at risk (40%), and inadequate (17%); the safety culture was high (14%), medium (82%), and low (4%). A significant positive correlation was found between safety culture and organizational climate (rho=0.501), organizational behavior (rho=0.477), organizational structure (rho=0.494), and management style (rho=0.474) (p<0.001). In conclusion, there is a positive correlation between organizational climate and safety culture in the surgery department of HEJCU.
