The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of organizational justice on organizational commitment through the mediating influence of job satisfaction. In addition, the study wants to look at two types of organizational justice (procedural and distributive) to see how the model works in a developing country. The study addressed executives at the middle and lower levels of management working for cement organizations in the central part of the Indian subcontinent. A total of 305 questionnaires were analyzed. The hypotheses were tested using multiple regression analysis. Job satisfaction acted as a mediator in the link between organizational justice and organizational commitment. Furthermore, job satisfaction fully mediated the association between procedural justice and organizational commitment and partially mediated the relationship between distributive justice and organizational commitment. The study addressed the mediation effect of job satisfaction, which went beyond the simple linear models commonly employed in the existing literature. Furthermore, this study extended their model to a developing country context.
