Re. Kidwell et N. Bennett, EMPLOYEE REACTIONS TO ELECTRONIC CONTROL-SYSTEMS - THE ROLE OF PROCEDURAL FAIRNESS, Group & organization management, 19(2), 1994, pp. 203-218
This field study considered proposed relationships between perceived p
rocedural fairness and employee reactions to a relatively novel organi
zational phenomenon, electronic control systems (ECSs). In a sample (N
= 151) of employees, perceptions of ECSs' procedural fairness explain
ed variance in ECSs' satisfaction beyond that accounted for in previou
s studies. In turn, ECSs' satisfaction was associated with job satisfa
ction. Results generally show that procedural fairness, which has a hi
story of strong relationships with important organization outcomes, en
hances existing models of employee reactions to ECSs.
