Impact of Workplace Ostracism on Perceived Organizational Support, Organizational Identity and Employee Productivity

Abstract

This study explores the intricate relationships between knowledge sharing, employee productivity, perceived organizational justice, organizational identity, workplace ostracism, and the moderating effect of employee empowerment in Pakistani Govt. departments. A varied sample of Government workers is surveyed to learn more about workplace ostracism, an issue for both organizational performance and employee well-being. Ostracism at work has a negative effect on how organizational justice is viewed, which weakens the organization's identity, according to the research. The necessity to resolve workplace ostracism is highlighted by the correlation between this weaker identity and reduced employee productivity and information sharing. Additionally, the research analyzes how employee empowerment might mitigate the negative effect of ostracism, improving the constructive inspiration of corporate identity on knowledge sharing and productivity. The study's findings have ramifications for organizations, particularly in the context of Government departments, emphasizing the value of fostering organizational justice, lowering ostracism, and enhancing identity in order to increase productivity and knowledge sharing. Employee empowerment is a key component of this process.
