Abstract: This study attempts to understand job satisfaction (JS) and organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) in relation to procedural justice (PJ). It also studies the mechanism through which PJ is likely to influence the dependent variables. On the basis of existing literature, organizational trust is identified as the mediating instrument through which PJ may affect JS and OCB. A survey-based design was used to collect data from 204 employees in the National Capital Region of Delhi. The respondents were working in organizations that broadly encompass the tourism industry. Correlation, regression and hierarchical multiple regression were used to test the model in the study. The mediation model was also tested using the bias-corrected percentile method with 5000 bootstrap samples. The results of the study corroborated with the previous findings and the stated hypotheses, with the exception that organizational trust was found not to mediate the relation between PJ and OCB. Some significant implications for managers and organizations can be gauged from this study. Managers must work towards establishing fair procedures in all aspects of organizational functioning. They should also decipher the attributes of organizational trust which are perceived as valuable by the employees.
