Poor organisational justice
Poor organisational justice which involves a lack of procedural justice, informational fairness, or interpersonal fairness can create a psychosocial workplace hazard.
What is poor organisational justice?
Poor organisational justice may include:
- failing to treat workers’ information sensitively or maintain their privacy
- policies or procedures that are unfair, biased or applied inconsistently
- penalising workers for things outside their control
- failing to recognise or accommodate the reasonable needs of workers
- discriminating against particular groups or not applying policies fairly to some groups
- failing to appropriately address (actual or alleged) underperformance, inappropriate or harmful behaviour, or misconduct
- allocating work, shifts and opportunities in a discriminatory or unfair way
- no or inadequate processes for making decisions affecting workers.
Poor organisational justice has been identified as a hazard in the Model Code of Practice: Managing psychosocial hazards at work.
