| description | Organizational justice (OJ) has a significant impact on employees' job satisfaction which means the importance of caring and using it in any organization. OJ shows the importance of showing clear interest regarding the procedures related to work such as clearing the rights and duties for employees, providing the employees with opportunities to complain about the decisions, representations of information related to work, decisions and alternatives. Numerous studies are available on this, but Jordan scenario is different due to Arab economic and political conditions. Middle East is recognized due to richness of oil and transportation of oil to other parts of the world. Therefore, the performance of employees directly affects the whole world if the oil industry under performs. The proposed study of this paper is a quantitative survey that empirically verifies whether organizational justice has significant influence on job satisfaction. Data are collected from employees of logistic sector of Jordan city and they are analyzed by multiple regressions through SPSS. The results indicate that organizational justice has a significant impact on employees' job satisfaction. The distributive justice has no impact on job satisfaction which means that there is no effect of delegating authorities and sharing them with employees and no impact of distributing equal opportunities and work schedules on job satisfaction. The procedural justice had an impact on job satisfaction, which means the importance of showing clear interest regarding the procedures related to work. The effect of interactional justice on job satisfaction is found to be relatively high. The study recommends the managers to encourage working by team sole and build good relationships with all the workers, helping the employees to evaluate themselves and seeking to solve the disputes and conflicts fairly. |
