Fairness Perceptions

Fairness perceptions refer to how individuals view the fairness of decisions, actions, or situations. These perceptions influence feelings of trust, satisfaction, and motivation. When people believe a process or outcome is just and equitable, they perceive it as fair; if they see bias, inconsistency, or favoritism, they may perceive it as unfair. Understanding fairness perceptions helps organizations improve their practices, ensuring that policies are seen as just, which fosters positive relationships and social harmony. These perceptions are subjective and can vary based on personal values, experiences, and cultural context.
