Organizational Justice and Job Satisfaction
-interpersonal: how people treated in interactions
-informational: how info is explained
all of these are related to satisfaction but not sure which is best
-longevity, psychological, and physical health benefits (psychological is the most
benefitted)
Outcomes of job satisfaction -job performance, absenteeism, and turnover rates all have low-moderate CCs ( job
performance is moderated by other variables, e.g., pay; also performance affects
satisfaction)
low to moderate CC on job outcome measures; larger for satisfaction rather than
performance or turnover. 3 types:
1. affective commitment: emotional attachment to org (most highly and consistently
Organizational commitment correlated with job outcomes)
2. continuous commitment: belief that you have to stay for financial reasons or lack of
alternatives
3. normative commitment: loyalty/obligation to org to stay
