Abstract

To investigate the status quo of the perception of abusive management and job burnout among college graduates starting work in the construction industry, as well as the mediating role of organizational justice between abusive management and job burnout and various dimensions, an abusive management scale, an organizational justice perception scale and a job burnout scale were used to survey 445 entry-level college graduates working in the construction industry. The reliability and validity tests, correlation analysis, and mediation effect test of the survey data show that: (1) abusive management can significantly and positively predict job burnout and its three dimensions, (2) abusive management can significantly negatively predict job burnout, (3) organizational justice can significantly and negatively predict job burnout and its three dimensions, and (4) organizational justice plays a completely mediating role between abusive management and job burnout. Abuse management can effectively alleviate the job burnout of college graduates at the beginning of their employment through organizational justice, which has a specific referential value for human resources training departments.
