Results indicated that emotional exhaustion is significantly and negatively related to teachers’ learning and loyalty. Meanwhile, findings divulged the negative association between emotional exhaustion and teachers’ commitment. Moreover, results also enlightened that organizational justice (distributed justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice) significantly moderate on the relationship of emotional exhaustion and job-related outcomes (Teachers’ Learning, Organizational Commitment, and Organizational loyalty). This study enriches the body of knowledge regarding the moderating role of organizational justice as previous studies almost ignored it.
