It is how individuals or groups view or perceive the fairness of treatment they receive from organizations and supervisors. Perceptions of organizational justice have been found to predict significant organizational outcomes, such as organizational commitment, job satisfaction, performance, turnover intentions, employee loyalty, and absenteeism. While many studies have consistently shown that a person’s perception of justice has a significant impact on some work outcomes, far fewer have examined the affect of this relationship in cultural diverse workplaces.  This study aims to examine the affects of collectivistic values as one of the main cultural constructs on perception of organizational fairness and subsequent organizational outcomes. The study attempts to answer an overarching question emanating from the fact that collectivist values are known for maintaining harmonious relationships in groups

This detrimental demeanor is counterproductive, as it for the entity so do for our common goods. The issue of sustainability is a dilemma of our which many scholars pondered over last decades, yet despite their efforts, the message is somewhat convoluted through a plethora of conflicting strategies, definitions, mandates and regulatory measures. The obfuscation has created deviation in the discourse of “sustainability” measures without addressing systemic discord with sustainability challenges at organizational and societal level, and societal and ecological level. This survey examines presence and absence of a particular behavioral dimension in global corporations and corollary effect of it. In addition, this global survey unveils previously unknown data depicting correlation between certain behavioral dimension at workplace and other corporate level factors including profitability, innovation and market leadership. This global survey serves as the basis for further research to find a common ground that brings institutional integration to sustainability conjectures.

Imaginary epistemic objects in integrated children’s services

by Steve Brown

Draft pre-publication version of Brown, S.D., with Daniels, H., Edwards, A., Leadbetter, J., Martin, D., Middleton, D., Warmington, P., Apostolov, A., & Popova, A. (2009) Imaginary epistemic objects in integrated children’s services. Society and Business Review ISSN 1746-5680, 4(1), 58-68

Justice is understood, following Byers & Rhodes discussion of Levinas as respecting the ‘unique and indivisible’ character of a given child.
Approach: The empirical material reported here is drawn from a large study of interagency working in children’s services in the UK. Data is taken from Developmental Work Research sessions. Methodological details are outlined in Daniels et al (2007) and Leadbetter et al (2007).
Findings: The key finding discussed here is that in order to balance the outcome measures used in children’s services, participants use a further abstraction ‘the outcome of improved outcomes’. The logical and practical consequences of this abstraction are analysed.
Originality/Value: The paper offers an empirically grounded contribution to conceptual debates about Otherness and ethics in organization. In particular it argues that a concern for the Other need not preclude a high level of concrete categorization and minute target setting. The Philosophical debate is seen to be ‘resolved’ in practice

Occupational narrative in a blue-collar community: Rejecting the dominant discourse with stories of "sisu"

Stories were identified by using Brown’s (1990) criteria for organizational stories (sense of temporality, story grammar, relevance for membership, and ring of truth), thematically analyzed to detect major themes (Owen, 1984), and examined to identify the functions that the stories served.

The root theme of the miners’ stories was sisu, a Finnish word that translates to inner determination. Their stories served the function of rejecting the dominant, white-collar discourse surrounding issues of work: rejection of the dominant conception of blue-collar careers, rejection of the dominant success story, and rejection of outsiders’ labeling of injustice. First, miners rejected the white-collar conception that blue-collar workers do not have choice in their careers. They told stories about their work ethic being widely recognized, which they used to identify choice in their careers. Second, miners rejected the dominant definition of success that is based on monetary achievement and promotions within the organizational hierarchy. The miners created cultural heroes and counter-heroes based on the existence or lack of qualities of sisu. These characters provided role models that workers could emulate to achieve success. Third, miners rejected the persistent labeling of their workplace as unjust by outsiders. They used stories of personal accountability and perseverance to recognize organizational justice within the workplace, even during times of tragedy.
