AB  - Equitable practices of fair and just treatment are vital in
promoting quality education and permeate Deming′s 14 points of quality
management. When inequitable practices exist, they have a negative
impact on worker motivation, quality of work performance and job
satisfaction. Inequitable practices can be both overt and covert with
lose‐lose confrontations resulting for both worker and administrator.
Hidden inequities violate the sense of fair and just treatment which is
deeply embedded in our culture. Administrator actions which run counter
to the concept of fairness and justice cause worker discontent and
detract from quality workmanship. Fusing together the tenets of equity
theory and Deming′s 14 points, administrators can provide equal ratios
of inputs to outcomes in the workplace, increase worker morale, and
provide fair and equitable treatment.
