Summary:To investigate the association between organizational justice (OJ) and health-related productivity loss (HRPL) among Korean employees. From January 6, 2020 to February 18, 2020, data were collected using a web-based questionnaire. This study measured HRPL using the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: General Health version. Procedural and interactional justice were measured using the Korean organizational justice questionnaire. Generalized linear models were used for estimating productivity loss based on tertiles of OJ levels, while the productivity loss of employees in low OJ categories was used as a reference group. The nonparametric associations between the OJ levels and the overall HRPL level were observed. High levels of OJ significantly reduced HRPL. Our results support the hypothesis that high OJ is associated with improved labor productivity.
