Description

Organizational justice examines whether employees believe the company holds wrongdoers accountable and communicates disciplinary guidelines effectively. When we talk about speakup culture, the effectiveness of the ethics and compliance program, the power of values-based leadership, and the overall health of a culture of ethics, these things often connect directly back to organizational justice.


In this episode, Malthe Helt, a Culture Analyst on the Ethisphere Data & Services team, provides his insights on how organizational justice needs to be maintained and why it sometimes feels like the most invisible part of an organization's culture.



  • Why organizational justice is such an interesting, subjective, and compelling pillar of ethical culture

  • How trust—the most important aspect of organizational justice—is difficult and time-consuming to build and easy to break

  • Examples of organizations where misconduct or a breach of trust erodes organizational justice

  • The particular challenges of organizational trust’s truism that the stronger it is and the more it works, the more invisible it becomes
