In the Gonzalez-Padron (2015) Chapter 5 read the paragraph on distributive justice: Distributive justice relates to the fairness of outcomes such as the allocation of pay dealer sales area and pricing in a multi-tiered distribution channel (Klein 2008; Umphress Ren Bingham & Gogus 2009). The approach emphasizes proportionate equality. A definition for distributive justice in business is the obligation to distribute benefits and costs among all affected by an action or policy.

Employees are more likely to describe a violation of distributive justice as unfair rather than unjust (Dempsey 1949)
