3 Steps to Ensure Fairness in the Workplace
Justice in the workplace is just as important as it is anywhere else. A situation in which employees feel that they are not being treated fairly will result in lower productivity, lack of motivation, and negative relationships, which can lead to unethical behaviour or destructive practices. An office without justice will have employees looking around for better employment options, and will at best lead to an uninspired team. In order ensure fairness, show that there is equal access to opportunity, clear processes and open communication, and a feedback system which facilitates constructive conversations. 1. Opportunity Fairness
Equality of distribution refers to the rewards that managers give out. Whether it is a monetary reward, a promotion, or a desirable assignment, fairness of distribution is crucial. Thus, managers should create environments in which equal opportunities, not equal rewards, are given. In other words, employees should feel that they have a fair chance to earn a reward if they work hard enough for it. In addition to rewards, managers should be sure to distribute tasks, attention, and feedback fairly.
