The Fairness Game —Fiorenza

These results suggest that the desire for basic fairness is at the center of all social interaction, not only among humans, but also among our closest biological cousins. Many theorize that it is, in fact, a “hardwired” trait in human beings—part of an ingrained survival instinct relating early human survival to the need to share societal resources. Assuming this theory is correct, employers would be well-advised to avoid even the appearance of “playing favorites” in all aspects of employee management.
