- Abstract
The research is concerned with understanding the role of organisational justice, and the parameters of organisational support mechanisms in the sustenance and enhancement of psychological well-being, which in turn was postulated to contribute to a number of organisationally relevant outcome variables, with a focus upon the target group of a security-service organisation personnel. The sample consisted of 270 male lower and middle level respondents from a government security-service (police) organisation, who were located in the eastern, central, and western parts of a large state of north India. Major findings were that internal motivation, ego-resilience, well-being, and organisational justice were significant positive predictors of organisationally relevant outcome variables. Further, organisational justice, and organisational support were found to be positive contributors to well-being, which apparently was needed to alleviate the sense of a lack of psychological well-being that seemed to prevail among the respondents.
