However, little research is conducted examining the relationship between informal interpersonal relationship and P-O fit. Thus, the pur-pose of this study is to investigate the relationship between workplace friendship and P-O fit. Controlled variables included demographic variables, organizational climate and self-esteem. Data was collected from 270 school teachers through questionnaire survey. A hierarchical regression was used to analyze the data. The result indicated that workplace friendship is positively related to p-o fit. Discussion and suggestions for fur-ther studies are also provided.
