“…An organizational member’s perception of prevailing justice in all the systems is a determinant of his/her commitment (Imamoglu et al ., 2019). A recent publication has used the three-component model of employee commitment in the Ethiopian higher educational sector (Gollagari et al ., 2021). In a higher educational institution, academic staffs exhibit more commitment provided they are satisfied with their academic rank (Gollagari et al ., 2021).…”

PurposeOrganizational justice and its impact on employee commitment have received a lot of attention these days. The objective of this study is to see the effect of job satisfaction as a mediator in the relationship between organizational justice and employee commitment. Also, the role of academic rank as a moderator in the model is probed.Design/methodology/approachA moderating mediation structural equation model was used for randomly collected cross-section data on 285 employees from public universities in Ethiopia. Necessary condition analysis (NCA) was employed to check the importance of the variables. The Gaussian copula approach was used to check endogeneity in the structural model.FindingsNCA confirms the importance of organizational justice and employee satisfaction as the independent variables. The Gaussian copula approach reveals no endogeneity problems in the structural model. The results supported the partial mediating role of job satisfaction in organizational justice and academic staff’s commitment. Moreover, though staff rank is not a necessary condition, it plays the role of moderator in the relationship between academic staff’s job satisfaction and commitment.Practical implicationsThis paper affirms that public institutions must implement fair initiatives and procedures to promote academic staff satisfaction and commitment.Originality/valueThis is the first study to check the job rank as a moderator in the model comprising organization justice, employee commitment and satisfaction. Moreover, application of NCA and Gaussian copula adds to methodological innovation.

Ethical leadership can lead to preparing the ground for employee voice, highlighting employees’ creativity, and encouraging knowledge-sharing behavior in the organization. Thus, this study examines the impact of ethical leadership on organizational identity with the mediating role of employee voice in digital startups. However, previous studies investigating the relationship between ethical leadership and organizational identity disregarded the intervening role of employee voice in this relationship. A cross-sectional design using a sample of 137 managers of digital startups in science parks. Through the PLS3 software, the results show that employees tend to discuss their work-related opinions and concerns more often if they consider their leaders trustworthy, and this can lead to competitive advantage and quick responses to environmental crises. According to the findings of this study, ethical leadership can prepare the ground for employee voice, highlight employees’ creativity, and encourage knowledge-sharing behavior in the organization. Hence, we suggest that leaders demonstrate personal integrity, openly receive employees’ ideas and recommendations, treat employees impartially, and attempt to maximize the benefits to their employees.

The impact of strategic human resource management on employee commitment in educational institutions is yet to be properly documented. This study investigated the impact of SHRM (strategic fit, role-position fit, intra-functional fit, and cross-functional fit) on employee commitment. Employing a survey research approach, data were collected from 314 employees in tertiary educational institutions in a developing country. A conceptual model was developed and hypotheses were proposed. Using partial least squares structural equation modeling technique, the proposed model explained 40% of employees' affective commitment, about 3% of employees' continuance commitment, and about 7% of employees' normative commitment. The cross-functional fit had the most significant effect on affective commitment. The result also revealed that not all SHRM practices could produce a positive significant effect on employee commitment. This study proposed a conceptual model and contributed to the formulation of HR policy and guidelines in tertiary institutions for improving employee commitment.
