This study aims to identify the role of organizational culture as a mediating
variable in the relationship between organizational justice and organizational
citizenship behaviors among a sample of employees and workers of the Directorate
of Local Administration at the headquarters of the state of Djelfa. This study was
applied to a sample of (268) employees out of the study population consisting of
(497) employees. This study aimed to test a number of main and secondary
hypotheses related to the direct and indirect relationships between the study
variables, as well as the differences between employees towards the study variables.
After collecting the statistical data based on the questionnaire as a main tool, it
was analyzed by a set of statistical methods, on top of which is the confirmatory
factor analysis using both (SPSS.v26) and (Amos.v26) program.

study;
• There is a high level of organizational culture with all its dimensions in the

organizational citizenship behavior with all its dimensions;
• There is a direct, statistically significant impact of organizational justice with its
dimensions on the organizational culture in the institution under study;
• There is a direct, statistically significant effect of organizational justice with its
dimensions on organizational citizenship behaviors in the institution under study;
• There is a direct, statistically significant effect of organizational culture on

• There are statistically significant differences in the level of workers' perception of
organizational justice due to the variable gender and (age). Therefore we accept the
first and second sub-hypothesis;
• There are no statistically significant differences in the level of workers' awareness of
organizational justice, organizational culture, and organizational citizenship
behaviors due to the variable (educational qualification);
• There are no statistically significant differences in the level of workers' awareness of
organizational justice and organizational culture due to the variable (professional
experience);
• There are statistically significant differences in the level of employees' awareness of
organizational citizenship behaviors due to the variable (professional experience).
Therefore we accept the fourth hypothesis.
The most important suggestion of this study is that managers and decision makers
should take honest and fair decisions among employees and based on the foundations
of equality and integrity values among employees and enhance the practices of
organizational citizenship behaviors, as well as the prevailing organizational culture.
