Percepções em contexto de trabalho: práticas de GRH, justiça organizacional e comportamento político

The main purpose of the present study is to analyse the contribution of human resources practices to lower perceptions of organizational politics through the generation of perceptions of organizational justice. Specifically, we wanted to examine to which extent perceptions about training opportunities, career management, and performance appraisal generate perceptions of distributive, procedural and interactional justice, and if these contribute to the reduction of perceptions of general political behaviors and go along to get ahead behaviors. A hundred and sixty-one employees of a transportation and logistics company answered the questionnaire. The results showed that perceptions about training opportunities and career management contribute to decrease perceptions of general political behaviors and go along to get ahead behaviors being fully mediated by perceptions of interactional justice; and that perceptions about performance appraisal produce both and indirect effect on perceptions of general political behaviors through perceptions of procedural and interactional justice and on go along to get ahead behaviours through perceptions of interactional justice.
