The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the manager trust and interactional justice perceptions and organizational silence behaviors of those teachers who work in primary and secondary schools. The research is based on the survey model and the population consists of 4761 teachers who worked in Samsun, Turkey. The sample of the study was chosen from 195 primary and secondary schools through a multi-stage sampling method. The study findings revealed that there exists a positive and highly significant relationship among teachers' interactional justice and their manager trust; a negative and mid-level significant relationship between their manager trust and their interactional justice; and a negative and mid-level significant relationship between their interactional justice and their manager trust, respectively. To list in order of importance, interactional justice and manager trust variables were found to be predictor variables for silence behavior and to represent 17% of change in the organizational silence behavior.

Summary
Organizations, as communities of power and actions, which are coordinated in a planned manner to achieve their goals that stemmed from their needs but are beyond their personal capabilities [1, 2], have to activate resources of manpower in an efficient way. Organizations, the strength of which originates in the human capital within its own structure, feed on social components such as love, respect, commitment, understanding and communication created by human relations in order to be successful. These components are vital factors that ensure the development, improvement and survival of an organization in its own environment [3]. Determination of the effect of the concepts of trust, justice and silence, which are within the scope of this research and are highly influenced by human relations, on educational organizations may be regarded as beneficial.
