The literature review shows that employees’ perceptions of fairness in all organizational processes and practices are assumed to influence their behavior and work outcomes. In order to achieve the aim of the research, the Quantitative method has been used through conducting questionnaires among employees. 400 employees were the participants, with the following results.
