The mediating role of professional values and self-efficacy in the relationship between organizational justice and quality of working life among nurses in southwestern Iran

Organizational justice not only directly impacts QWL but also indirectly affects it through professional values and self-efficacy. Given that the scores for organizational justice and QWL among operating room nurses were at a moderate level, hospital managers need to implement strategies such as organizing periodic training classes and workshops on stress management, effective communication skills, and the development of professional ethics to improve the working conditions of personnel in these areas. Policymakers in the healthcare system and hospital managers can enhance QWL and promote a fairer work environment in operating rooms by increasing their self-efficacy levels and respecting nursing professional values.
