Abstract

Many employers make great efforts to be treated favorably by their employees, in part to avoid employee turnover and productivity losses. Phrased differently, employers are interested in being treated partially by their employees. This article’s project is to present three reasons that employees owe partiality to their employers. If employees do owe partiality to their employers, there are reasons for employees to be partial to their employer independent of their employer’s efforts. Further, an investigation into why and when employers ought to be partial to their employers will reveal conditions employers need to meet in order for employees to have reasons to owe partiality to their employers. If employers wish to make efforts to be treated partially by their employees, employers should heed those conditions.
