Organisational Justice and Human Resource Retention: Role of Leadership Consideration

Abstract

The role that leadership consideration plays on the effects of organisational justice on human resource retention has not been widely researched, eventhough, leadership had predicted the retention of employees in the workplace. It is based on this premise that this study investigated the moderating role of leadership consideration on the effects of organisational justice on human resource retention in Nigerian public universities using cross-sectional design. Multiple Linear Regression and Pearson Partial Zero-Order Correlation results revealed that leadership consideration (LC) moderates the relationship between organisational justice (OJ) and human resource retention (HRR). It was concluded that leadership consideration is an instrument for improving organisational justice and human resource retention through the implementation of direct compensation, flexible working arrangements and promotion in the workplace. One of the recommendation of this study is that National University Commission (NUC); the watch dog, policymaker and regulator of universities in Nigeria should ensure that promotion guidelines for academic staffs are uniform across all the universities in Nigeria, as this will bring fairness in the university system.
