Abstract

Araştırmanın amacı, yöneticilerin etik liderlik davranışları ile çalışanların örgütsel adalet algıları arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek ve yöneticilerin etik liderlik davranışlarının çalışanların örgütsel adalet algıları üzerindeki rolünü belirlemektir. Yöneticilerin etik liderlik davranışları Etik Liderlik Ölçeği Brown, Trevino & Harrison, 2005 , çalışanların örgütsel adalet algıları ise Örgütsel Adalet Ölçeği Niehoff & Moorman, 1993 ile ölçülmüştür. LISREL 8.8’de gerçekleştirilen doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda, örgütsel adaletin üç, etik liderlik davranışının bir boyuttan oluştuğu doğrulanmıştır. Yöneticilerin etik liderlik davranışlarının örgütsel adaletin boyutları üzerinde etkisi olduğuna ilişkin geliştirilen yapısal eşitlik modelinin test edilmesiyle etik liderliğin dağıtım adaleti, prosedür adaleti ve etkileşim adaleti üzerinde etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir

The Role of Managers’ EthIcal LeadershIp BehavIours on OrganIzatIonal JustIce PerceptIon of Workers

Abstract

The aim of the research is to investigate the relationship between managers’ ethical leadership behaviours and the organizational justice perception of workers and to identify the role of managers’ ethical leadership behaviours on organizational justice perception of workers. Managers’ ethical leadership behaviours was measured by Ethical Leadership Scale Brown et al., 2005 and organizational justice perception of workers was measured by Organizational Justice Scale Niehoff & Moorman, 1993 . After the result of comfirmatory factor analysis at LISREL 8.8, it is verified that organizational justice is composed with three dimensions and ethical leadership behaviour is composed with one dimesion. Testing the structural equation model about managers’ ethical behaviours’ influence on dimensions of organizational justice, it is realized that ethical leadership influences distributive justice, procedural justice and interactional justice
