The total questionnaires included in the study were 368 subordinate staff working in different divisions in the university. Communication climate inventory and role ambiguity scale were used to explore the experiences of subordinate staff. The data were analyzed by means of Pearson’s product-moment correlation and step wise multiple regression. The results appeared that (i) strategy one of the facet of defensive communication climate were showed inverse significant relationship with role ambiguity, (ii) strategy and control facets of defensive communication climate were emerged most dominant predictors of role ambiguity, (iii) supportive communication climate and their dimensions were found positive significant relationship with role ambiguity and (iv) total supportive communication climate revealed as one of the most significant predictor of role ambiguity. Implication of this investigation and suggestions for future research were discussed to add value in the current areas of knowledge.
