Ostracism at workplace can lead to workplace deviant behaviours.
Personality traits of the employees might be important determinant of work
behaviors and are expected to moderate the ostracism-workplace deviance
link. The aim of the present study was to find if ostracism predicts two
dimensions of workplace deviance, namely organizational deviance and
interpersonal deviance; and to check the moderating role of personality. A
correlational research design was used to conduct the study. Sample
consisted of 120 employees (104 male and 16 female) of private
organization of Lahore selected through purposive sampling. Workplace
Ostracism Scale (Ferris, Brown, Berry & Lian, 2008), Ten Item
Personality Inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow, & Swann, 2003) and
Interpersonal and Organizational Deviance Scale (Bennett & Robinson,
2000) were used to measure the study variables. Preliminary analysis
showed that the current job position was negatively related to ostracism.
Ostracism was significantly linked to workplace deviant behaviours.
Agreeableness showed negative relation to Ostracism. Emotional stability
had significant negative relation with both ostracism and interpersonal
deviance. Using interpersonal and organizational deviance as dependent
variables, moderation through hierarchical regression was carried out.
Agreeableness, emotional stability and openness to experience moderated
the relationship of ostracism and interpersonal deviance. Emotional
stability moderated the relationship of ostracism and organizational
deviance. Results were discussed and limitations, suggestions and
implications were presented for future research and practice.
