The purpose of this research is to explore factors affecting justice perception on wage of care workers and examine the relationship between the factors and the perception. For this study, a sample of 481 care workers was extracted from long term-care facilities in Incheon. In this study, independent variables were categorized into three types; individual, work, organizational factors through literature reviews and multiple regression analyses were used for identifying the relationships. The results showed that careers in care, professionalism, and satisfaction of social recognition among individual factors were significantly associated with the justice perception on wage. Among work factors, burden for caring, violence experience, disease, perception on amount of work, and careers in similar positions were significantly related to the perception. Finally, employment status and service region among organizational factors had significantly relationships with the perception. These findings suggest that input factors such as perception and evaluation on the task and work environments were more important to justice perception on wage of care workers than outcome factors as hourly wage. Based on these findings, policy implications for low-paid problems of care workers were discussed.
