EFFECTS OF INTRA-ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE AND PERSONALITY TRAITS ON ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT: A STUDY ON HEALTH-CARE EMPLOYEES

The study investigates the relationship between organizational commitment, organizational justice and personality traits. Organizational justice and organizational commitment are among the most frequently discussed topics in management and organization fields. Employees' perceptions of positive or negative justice towards their organizations outline their comprehension of whether they are being treated fairly or not. The purpose of this study is to measure the influence of personality traits and organizational justice perceptions of health-care employees on organizational commitment and to show the relation between these concepts. The survey was conducted by using face-to-face surveys with 250 healthcare employees who are working in a private hospital. The results suggest that there is a statistically significant difference between the scores of the healthcare personnel's fair distribution subscale on organizational justice perception scale according to their educational status. In addition, it was found that the difference between the scores of the participants on the other scales and subscales was not statistically significant.
