Abstract
Based on social cognitive theory, we investigate the impact of exploitative leadership (EL) on employee expediency (EE) with the mediating role of perceived injustice (PI) in the banking sector. For this purpose, 413 employees who were working in different banks in Punjab, Pakistan, were investigated through a survey questionnaire. The smart PLS 4.0 was used to measure the relationship and test the hypothesis. The results showed that EL directly affects EE. This study also found that perceived injustice mediates the relationship between EL and EE. The research conducted with said variables enriched the literature and scope of knowledge in the domains of OB and HRM. In conclusion, this study recommended managers that in order to get better overall organizational performance, an exploitation-free environment for employees must be developed and try to understand the emotional psychology of workers, especially in service-oriented sectors.
