Nexus between Organizational Justice and Job Satisfaction among Medical Representatives: Psychological Capital as Mediator

Abstract

The primary objective of this study was to examine the relationship between organisational justice (OJ), job satisfaction (JS), and psychological capital (PC). Additionally, the study aimed to test the mediating role of PC in the relationship between OJ and JS within the context of workers employed by multi-national pharmaceuticals companies. A total of 533 medical representatives employed in multi-national pharmaceuticals companies working in the regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa participated in this study. The findings from the correlation analysis indicate a statistically significant nexus between OJ and both JS and PC. Similarly, there was a significant positive relationship between PC and JS. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the existence of a partly mediating impact of PC in the nexus between OJ and JS among workers of multi-national pharmaceuticals companies operating in KP.
