Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The employee may view this policy as procedural injustice, as it is a rule that seems to deny the employee the opportunity to transfer based on their personal circumstances, rather than actual job performance or qualifications. The attendance issue may not be relevant to the employee's ability to perform well in the new position, and therefore the policy may seem unfair or unjust.
