Organizational Justice: The Search for Fairness in the Workplace (Issues in Organization and Management Series)

Organizational Justice presents a major new and comprehensive framework for understanding and addressing injustice in the workplace. The authors help managers and organizations to understand how people decide what is unfair, the types of emotional and intellectual responses that people have to unfair treatment, and the ways that individuals and groups respond to injustices. What's more, managers will learn how to reduce injustices in the workplace and how to deal with those policies, procedures, and decisions that are likely to be perceived as unfair.
The authors go on to examine a number of related contemporary issues including executive compensation, comparable worth, the management of dissent, and balancing the competing interests of multiple stakeholders in the modern organization. The coverage of theory and practice makes this critical reading for managers as well as for scholars of management and organizational behavior.
