Abstract

The present study was conducted in Mazandaran, a province in north of Iran, and aimed to analyze the impact of organizational justice on job satisfaction. There were 1100 personnel in Mellat bank. A total of 366 questionnaires were distributed among the bank personnel and 288 filled questionnaires were returned. The factors analysis and the findings show that organizational justice has a significant positive influence on job satisfaction. This finding implied that the higher the level of employees’ perception towards fairness to the means used to determine outcomes (procedural justice), fairness of the outcomes employees receive (distributive justice) and fairness of the relationships between individuals within the organization (interactional justice) tended to increase the level of employees’ job satisfaction. Moreover, procedural justice and interactional justice were more important in predicting job satisfaction than was distributive justice among our sample of bank personnel.
