Abstract :In this study, it was aimed to determine the mediator role of the organizational justice in the effect of bureaucratic school structure on job satisfaction. The Enabling School Structure, Organizational Justice and Job Satisfaction scales were used to collect research data. According to the results; teachers think that the schools they work had medium level enabling and low level obstructive bureaucratic structures. Between bureaucratic school structure dimensions and job satisfaction a low level, and between organizational justice a moderate level relationship were found. There was also a low level of relationship between job satisfaction and organizational justice. Results showed that organizational justice was the mediator in the effect of enabling bureaucracy on job satisfaction. However, since there was no significance effect on job satisfaction and organizational justice perception by the obstructive bureaucratic structure, it was impossible to mention the effect of mediation.
