Organizational Justice and Workplace Harmony

Organizational justice has been a major factor for improving organizational performance. Hence, the present study examined how organizational justice enhances workplace harmony. The study adopted three dimensions of organizational justice (procedural, distributive and interactional justice) and discussed them on how they enhance workplace harmony. The study also adopted equity theory that promotes fairness in the workplace. Based on the review of related literature, the study found that the three dimensions of organizational justice improve workplace harmony when management displays fairness in the workplace. Thus, the study recommended that management should ensure that there is fairness in work procedures to improve workplace harmony. They should provide fair compensation system to improve workplace harmony. Management should ensure that interactional justice is practiced by frequent communication with employees and strive to ensure that information flows vertically and horizontally to improve employees’ performance in the workplace.
