“…Parenall (2003) found the partial relationship between these two variables while William and Hacks (1986) found a strong positive relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Other studies (Yousef, 2001;Chen, 2007;Allen et al, 2003) have also investigated the relationship between job satisfaction and employee's organizational commitment but mixed results were found. Job satisfaction positively effects affective and normative commitment but not continuance commitment (Meyer & Allen, 1997;Celik, n.d.).…”

The study proposed to investigate the effect of the Islamic work ethic on the perception of justice among employees in Islamic microfinance institutions in Indonesia. The construct of organisational justice included three dimensions, namely distributive, procedural, and interactional justice. The sample consisted of 370 employees from 60 Islamic microfinance institutions in Central Java, Indonesia. The results suggest that the Islamic work ethic positively contributes to the aforementioned three dimensions of the perception of justice. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed.

“…Blood (1969) found that religious ethics (Protestant) have positive correlation with job satisfaction. This is supported by Yousef (2001) that religious values through work ethic have a positive relationship with work satisfaction. Therefore both research supports that religious values have a positive impact on work satisfaction and coincidentally, belief in God is also the number one value in the MAF.…”

Studies on the fit between the person and the environment i.e. P-E fit are widespread. One aspect of P-E fit is values congruence i.e. the fit or similarity between the values of the organization and the employees' values. However, there has been no study that reported the congruence between an organization's value hierarchy (i.e. the ranking of its values) and those of its employees. This study investigates the values hierarchy congruence between the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) and its soldiers and the relationship with satisfaction. A sample of 214 officers in the MAF were obtained. When the top 5 values were used in analyses, values hierarchy congruence scores were significantly correlated with soldiers' satisfaction (.122, p<0.05). This suggests that not only should the values of the soldiers and the organizations be similar or congruent, but the priority or ranking of these values are important as well.
