Methods: This was a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study. Quantitative data were collected with a researcher-made questionnaire with appropriate validity and reliability. In this study, 248 managers and employees were enrolled using a simple random sampling method based on Morgan’s table, and SPSS21 and Lisrel8.5 were utilized to analyze the data, applying factor analysis tests, Pearson correlation, and a structural equation model.

Results: The results showed that the four components of organizational communication, servant leadership, human resource management, and Islamic work ethics with the values of 0.94, 0.82, 0.76, and 0.76, respectively, had the most prominent roles; however, organizational ethical values had the lowest role with the value of 0.16, as evidenced by the justice-oriented organizational model with the approach of moral values.
