Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interactional fairness refers to the perceived fairness of the treatment received during the hiring and employment process, including the behavior of interviewers and negotiators. Rude or unprepared interviewers, canceled or rescheduled interviews, and unreasonable or unhelpful negotiators all contribute to a low perception of interactional fairness. Distributive fairness relates to the perceived fairness of the outcome or distribution of resources, while procedural fairness relates to the perceived fairness of the process used to determine the outcome. Perceived fairness is a general term that encompasses all types of fairness but does not specifically identify one type. Therefore, choice (C) interactional fairness is the best answer.
