Organizational justice can dramatically impact the personnel’s attitudes and behaviors and is therefore considered to be of great importance. Moreover, high quality of work life is known as the basic prerequisite to empower human resources in healthcare systems. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between perceived organizational justice and quality of work life among hospital personnel.In this descriptive correlational study, the samples consisted of 268 staff members of a public hospital in Ahvaz. Samples were selected through census. Data were gathered by a demographic information questionnaire, Niehoff and Moorman Organizational Justice Scale, and Quality of Work Life Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using descriptive and analytical statistics.Results showed that quality of work life among the hospital personnel in this study was moderate (64.2 %), relatively good (16%), poor (13 %) and good (6.8%). Dimensions of organizational justice including distributive and procedural justice had a significant relationship with quality of work life.Since there is a direct relationship between perceived organizational justice and quality of work life, hospital managers should pay attention to this issue, which will lead to enhanced quality of work life in personnel.
