Employees can help an organization to flourish by contributing their constructive thoughts. However, employees withhold their expressions due to a number of reasons. Such a behavior which is termed as employee silence may lead to detrimental outcomes for the organizations and employees themselves. This paper attempts to examine the relationship between four types of employee silence, i.e. acquiescent, quiescent, opportunistic and prosocial silence, and subjective wellbeing directly and indirectly through the mediation of job satisfaction in employees working in banking sector of Pakistan. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis has been employed on the data collected from 275 employees. Results demonstrate that three types of employee silence i.e. acquiescent, quiescent and opportunistic silence have a negative impact on an employee’s subjective wellbeing and job satisfaction but, prosocial silence has no relationship with subjective well-being. It is suggested that managers must adopt strategies and design programs to reduce employee inhibitions and eliminate silence behaviors.
