Abstract
Abstract : Currently, the prevalence of hotel employee' deviant behavior in the workplace not only becomes more serious than general presumption but also becomes a harmful factor to the organizations' growth and profitability. This study emplores the effects of organizational justice (specifically, distributive justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice) on employee deviance, analyzes why hotel employees engage in deviant behaviors, and provides solutions for hospitality organazations. Moreover, organizational commitment has been viewed as a mediating role between organazational justice and deviant behavior. A questionaire survey research design was used to collect data, and a 375 dyad was sampled from hotel employees in Macau. A SEM analysis indicated that distributive justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice were negatively related to deviant behavior. Organizational commitment had a partial mediating effect in the relationgship. In addition, implications and suggestions for future research are discussed. Paragraph Headings: 1.
