Abstract
This study aimed to investigate and monitor the mediating role of career path development in the relationship between the reduction of perceived organizational justice and the glass ceiling. The research was descriptive-causal in terms of nature, applied in terms of purpose, and fundamental in terms of type. The data were collected by using questionnaires. The statistical population was all female education employees of Hashtgerd city, among whom 316 were selected through a random sampling method according to Gorjesi and Morgan tables. The confirmatory factor analysis to analyze the data and used path analysis of structural equations were applied to examine path coefficients with the help of Amos Graphics software estimates. According to the results of the path analysis, the overall effects of decreasing perceived interactive and procedural justice, career path development, and decreasing perceived distributive justice on the glass ceiling were significant, and they could explain only 20% of the changes in the dependent variable. By comparing the beta coefficients, it can be said that the glass ceiling is affected more than anything else by the reduction of perceived interactive and procedural justice.
