This research paper examined the relationship between organizational justice and job satisfaction. Traditionally, organizational justice is measured through three components but in this paper the concept of organizational justice has been extended and two new components temporal justice and spatial justice have been introduced and researched upon. Thus the impact of organizational justice on job satisfaction was checked by five dimensions; distributive justice, procedural justice, interactional justice, temporal justice and spatial justice. Employee perceptions were taken to evaluate whether fairness prevails in the organization or not and furthermore whether this fairness affect their satisfaction level on the job. The study investigated this relationship in the Pakistani environment, particularly, the employees in the banking sector in the metropolitan city of Karachi. The findings show that significant relationship exists between distributive justice, interactional justice, temporal justice and job satisfaction. It is anticipated that if this research would be replicated by other researchers in different countries and contexts with few modifications, it will highlight relevance on a broader scale.
