Procedural justice
Procedural justice is the idea of fairness in the processes that allocate resources and resolve disputes. It is based on the idea of fairness. A fair process is used for deciding on what is to be distributed. If the process is fair, individuals may accept an imbalance in shares distributed. Elements of the process call attention to the fairness of interaction. It is also known as economic justice. It evaluates the fairness of the process. It is based on fair play.
Distributive justice
It is based on social order; it is a socialist principle wherein equality is a fundamental principle. It is based on the idea of fair share. Distributive justice is not an economic justice. It evaluates the fairness of the outcome.
Procedures can be controlled for procedural justice but a system based on equality cannot be controlled by supervisors as such as society does not have a system of equality but a system of the process of distribution being fair.
Negotiation communications are a part of procedural justice. It is an indicator of how group members treat each other. Evaluation of employees requires procedural justice.

My professors question
How might you use the principles of procedural justice to avoid having an employee quit because she believes her boss gave her an unfair evaluation?
