Abstract: This study aims to examine the link between power distance and supervisor ostracism in the Chinese Confucian cultural context and whether procedural fairness plays a moderating effect on the process. Data was collected in China through a survey using a questionnaire, and hierarchical regression analyses were used to test the hypotheses. Results from 396 employees revealed that power distance is positively related to supervisor ostracism, procedural fairness is negatively related to supervisor ostracism, and procedural fairness plays a moderating role in the relationship between power distance and supervisor ostracism.
