The concept of "distributive justice," which defines how individuals see their own treatment or, more broadly, how they consider a distribution to be fair, was the first sort of justice to spark the interest of organizational justice experts, and it continues to do so to this day. Fairness, equality, and need are the three characteristics that people use to determine whether the outcomes they have experienced are fair. Accordingly, a fair allocation in equity allocations is one that rewards participants in a manner that is proportional to the number of contributions they have made (Wijsman & Berbés-Blázquez, 2022).
During the time of the ancient era, distributive justice was more akin to a rigid system than it was
to the actual distribution of things. It was the laws, institutions, and practices of each community that were the focus of distributive justice. These are the factors that generate unequal distributions of advantages and obligations among the participants in each society. Legal justice, commutative justice, and distributive justice are the three sorts of justice that are currently seen by individuals who are a part of the judicial branch as a means of bringing about equality, particularly during political discourse. As a result of this, the primary focus of distributive justice
in the modern era is on the way the resources that the government has acquired are dispersed to the general population. The most contentious issue in the political discourse of the present day is the question of how it ought to be distributed: whether it ought to be allocated equally, in accordance with contributions, or in accordance with the requirements of each geographical location. The goal of some politicians is to maintain conformity, thus they advocate for equitable distribution. Some individuals have the belief that the more you give, the more you will receive in return, while others are of the opinion that the less fortunate regions ought to receive more assistance to assist them with their challenges (Byars & Stanberry, 2023).
