This study examines how organizational justice and organizational culture influence the commitment of public school teachers in East District II, Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. Understanding these factors is essential for improving teacher retention and job satisfaction. A descriptive correlational research design was used, with data collected from 282 randomly selected teachers through survey questionnaires. Results indicate that organizational justice and culture both significantly affect teachers’ commitment. Specifically, interactional justice plays a key role in strengthening commitment, while distributive and procedural justice do not show a significant effect. Among the aspects of organizational culture, only adaptability demonstrates a meaningful impact on commitment. Overall, the model explains 12.5% of the variance in organizational commitment, confirming that fostering fairness and a supportive work environment can enhance teacher dedication. These findings highlight the importance of fair treatment and a strong organizational culture in creating a motivated and engaged teaching workforce.
