Organizational politics has been referred to as omnipresent as well as elusive. This elusiveness arises because of the lack of a clear understanding of what constitutes organizational politics. The present paper introduces a new scale that purports to measure perceptions of organizational politics. The development and refinement of the scale along with validation procedures are presented.
