The objective of this study was to prove whether perceivedorganizational injustice had influence on WPWU which affected work productivity. A total of 222respondents working in various industries were gathered through web-survey. By using multinomiallogistic regression analysis, this study found that high level use of internet for unrelated jobsbetween 2 to 4 hours a day was influenced by respondents’ perception of not getting fair treatmentand incentive for being good performer, which then caused them to perform very low completion oftasks.
