Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Gathering an international panel of scholars from Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands, and the United States, our symposium, “Bringing the Unattended Center Stage: Exploring Fairness, Ambiguity, and the Path to Redemption” navigates the multifaceted challenges faced by organizations today. More precisely, this symposium sheds light on unattended justice topics using rigorous scientific inquiry to highlight the justice-related challenges faced by organizations and their members. Combining various methodological approaches, each paper spotlights underexplored justice topics, including (a) how morally questionable (in)actions are associated with different levels of ambiguity, which may elicit distinct processes and implications, (b) individuals’ experiences and responses to allegations of harm in situations marked by ambiguity and complexity, complicating the assessment of culpability, (c) fairness concerns and legitimacy issues arising from need-based distributions across on-site, remote, and hybrid work arrangements, (d) how employees evaluate differentiated vs. individualized HR practices, and (e) whether and when workplace offenders are redeemable, showcasing how managers and employees approach the concept of redemption, change, and restorative justice. Dr. David Patient, esteemed for his fundamental contributions to the management discipline broadly and justice events specifically, will conclude the symposium with an engaging, interactive discussion that highlights key insights and future research directions. This symposium offers actionable insights into addressing fairness concerns in diverse work modes, navigating morally ambiguous actions, and managing complex harm allegations. Together, the symposium equips practitioners with tools to foster fairness, enhance ethical decision-making, and integrate restorative justice into organizational practices. “Do No Harm” Versus “Do Virtue”: Differentiating Sins of Commission and Omission Author: Christine Chi Hye Hwang; University of Guelph Author: Laurie Barclay; University of Guelph Author: Robert Bies; Georgetown University What We Don’t Know About The Consequences of Unverifiable Allegations Author: Maja Graso; University of Groningen Author: Lieven Brebels; KU Leuven Author: Jeroen Camps; Author: Thomas M.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
