Abstract

The aim is to investigate effects
of procedural justice on job satisfaction and new identification after merger
and to investigate the mediatory role of new identification on this
relationship. Methodology -   Research
participants of whom experienced the merger were reached by convenient sampling
after the bank merger (N=143). The reliability, validity, normality,
correlation and bootstrap analysis were used. Research findings show that
procedural justice effects job satisfaction and new identification after the
merger significantly and positively. However there is no mediation effect of
the new identification after bank merger on this relationship. The findings
show that for success in mergers the management must understand the importance
of employees’ job satisfaction and must evaluate the factors effecting job
satisfaction with scientific methods. 

Keywords
