In contrast, a lack of workplace fairness can have a negative impact on businesses. A study by the Institute of Adult Learning (IAL) found that employees who experienced misbehaviours or mistreatment in the workplace had higher levels of stress and lower job satisfaction, which in turn affected their commitment levels and work performance.1
