This document summarizes a research study that analyzed the impact of organizational justice on employee turnover at TOTAL E&P Yemen (TEPY), the largest oil and gas company in Yemen. The study examined how employees' perceptions of distributive justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice affected their job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intentions. A questionnaire was distributed to 183 TEPY employees in Yemen. The findings indicated that higher perceptions of organizational justice led to increased employee satisfaction and commitment, and reduced turnover intentions. Specifically, procedural justice had the strongest influence on commitment and turnover intentions, while distributive justice most influenced job satisfaction. The conclusions recommend that TEPY managers promote fairness to benefit both employees and the organization.
