Descriptive statistics, kolmogorov smirnov test, Spearman correlation coefficient and multiple regression analyses were used for data analyses.

Furthermore, there was a negative and significant association between distribution justice (r=-0.193, P=0.037) and interaction justice (r=-0.230, P≤0.01) with intention to leave. The results of regression analysis showed that distribution justice predict intention to leave of employees.
