Abstract

Organizational transition presents significant challenges for educational institutions in maintaining teachers' organizational commitment. This study examined the influence of organizational justice, change management, and job satisfaction on teachers' organizational commitment during the organizational transition at XYZ School, Tangerang. A quantitative explanatory design with a census approach was employed, involving all 85 teachers. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, partial (t) tests, simultaneous (F) tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²) with IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The results show that organizational justice significantly influences organizational commitment (β = 0.282, p = 0.031), while job satisfaction has the strongest positive effect (β = 0.501, p < 0.001). In contrast, change management does not significantly influence organizational commitment (β = –0.052, p= 0.708). Collectively, the three independent variables significantly explain organizational commitment (F = 22.343, p < 0.001), accounting for 45.3% of the variance (R² = 0.453). These findings suggest that teachers’ perceptions of organizational justice and job satisfaction play a greater role than the current change-management process
