Abstract

This study examines the role of organizational justice as an antecedent of job satisfaction and its effect on procrastination behavior in the context of psychological contract breach. The study was conducted through a survey of 195 education staff at state universities in Indonesia. The research data were obtained using questionnaires and then analyzed using the covariance-based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM) method. The results of the study found that (1) distributive justice and procedural justice were antecedents of job satisfaction, while interactional justice had no significant effect on job satisfaction, (2) distributive justice had a positive effect on job satisfaction in the context of high-psychological contract breach; job satisfaction had a negative and significant effect on procrastination behavior in the context of psychological contract breach. The effect of organizational justice on job satisfaction and procrastination behavior occurred in the context of formal-transactional relationships compared to informal-relational. This study fills the literature gap by explaining the relationship of the dimensions of organizational justice (transactional-relational), job satisfaction, and procrastination behavior in the context of psychological contract breach.
