Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between Machiavellian leadership and counterproductive work behavior (CWB) in tanners sector of Pakistan. The study also investigated the mediating role of justice perceptions in these relationships. Data were collected from 353 respondents by using self-administered questionnaires from tanners sector of Pakistan. Data were analyzed through Structure equation modeling and test the hypothesized relationships. Quantitative results showed the existence of Machiavellian leadership that lead to CWB in tanners sector. Justice perceptions mediate the relationship between Machiavellian leadership and CWB. Tanneries should conduct different training sessions to reduce the effect of Machiavellian leadership behavior in workplace to reduce the counterproductive work behavior. Future studies may conduct on destructive leadership with horizontal violence and organizational politics.
