This study investigated the influence of organizational justice, organizational commitment, program commitment, and organizational learning climate on Six Sigma performance. A majority of existing research of Six Sigma has focused on technical aspect of Six Sigma with anecdotal case analysis. To overcome the restricted area of research interest and methodological limitation, this study focused on the effects of organizational variables that are expected to have an influence over Six Sigma performance with survey method. The data were collected from 184 employees of 23 public-sector companies and were analyzed by structural equation modeling method. The results show that organizational fairness and organizational commitment affects Six Sigma program commitment that, in turn, affects perceived Six Sigma performance. Contrary to our hypothesis, learning organizational atmosphere does not show statistically significant moderating effect on the relationship between organizational justice and program commitment. Practical implications and future research directions were suggested.
