EMPLOYEE REACTIONS TO ELECTRONIC CONTROL-SYSTEMS - THE ROLE OF PROCEDURAL FAIRNESS

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.
