The Impact of Organizational Justice on Organizational Citizenship Behavior with the Mediating Role of Trust
Abstract
The study aims to observe the nexus between organizational justice with organizational citizenship behaviors in the presence of a mediating variable i.e., trust, in the context of Pakistani academics. Data was collected through a questionnaire personally distributed among the teachers, teaching in these three sisters’ institutions FCA (Frontier Children Academy), FYA (Frontier Youth’s Academy), and FSA (Frontier Science Academy) of Peshawar. Our data contain 180 teachers who are selected randomly from the mentioned three institutes. The data was scrutinized through reliability and validity tests, descriptive statistics, correlation, and Regression. Baron and Kenny [1], a four-step approach has been followed to test the hypothesis of the study. The results revealed that all organizational justice dimensions i.e., distributive justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice have a positive significant effect on the organizational citizenship behavior of these teachers, teaching in these three institutions. The results also revealed that trust as a mediating variable partially mediates the associations of distributive and PJ with OCB, while trust has been found to fully mediating the nexus of interactional justice and organizational citizenship behavior relationship. This research may subsidize the text by examining the joint impacts of organizational justice and trust in direction on citizenship behavior in various cultural and occupations. The results show some theoretical and managerial implications also.
