The instrument is questionnaire survey. The sample is decided by proportional stratified random sampling. Respondents are 134 nurses. The data analysis used is structural equation modeling (SEM). Results of this study indicate that personality, trust in managers and organizational commitment affect significantly the OCB, but organizational justice does not affect OCB. In addition, organizational justice affects significantly the trust in managers and organizational commitment. Finally, the findings can prove that organizational commitment and the trust in managers can act as a complete mediation of the relationship between organizational justices and OCB. The practical implication of this study is to provide knowledge and information for nurses and hospital management to increase OCB by applying the concept of personality, organizational justice, organizational commitment and trust in managers.
