Organisational justice in the context of organisational change

Recent research on justice in organisations has demonstrated the importance of justice perceptions for a wide range of organisational outcomes. This article examines the role of justice perceptions in the context of organisational change. First, the relevance of organisational justice during organisational change is discussed. Next, a review is presented of the literature on organisational justice and employee reactions to organisational change, whereby justice is considered either an antecedent or consequence of change reactions. Finally, several guidelines for future research are proposed.
