Organisational justice and employees’ commitment of selected Nigerian banking sector

Nigerian banking institutions in the 21st century face significant workplace challenges, including employee commitment, managerial decision-making issues, perceptions of inequality, unfair treatment and a lack of stability and reliability due to competitive forces. This study investigates the effect of organisational justice variables on employee commitment in a specific sector. A descriptive research approach was used with 361 questionnaires distributed but only 332 returned resulting in a 91.97% return rate. This study used Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for descriptive statistics and the Structural Equation Model (SEM-PLS) for inferential statistics to evaluate the generated hypothesis. This study reveals that employees' perception of distributive justice significantly influences their commitment; procedural justice affects their normative commitment and interactional justice influences their continuance commitment. It emphasises the importance of understanding the relationship between organisational justice and employee commitment to guide stakeholders in creating fair and positive work environments promoting employee well-being and enhancing organisational outcomes.
