Abstract
Employee or leader negativity affects the performance of the workforce, thus leading to loss and poor growth of the organization. The purpose of this research is to understand toxins at work place and their impact on performance of employees. This research reviews the literature associated with factors leading to toxicity at work places. The study also provides an overview of the issues faced by the organisations due to toxic behaviour of the employees especially working in IT firms. Data was collected from IT employees and was analysed by using Structural Equation Modelling(SEM). There results indicated that these toxins had negative relationship with employee engagement. Toxins present in organisations lead to a feeling of dissatisfaction, and unwillingness to take initiative. Dynamic changes in the IT sector with the behavioural issues were not addressed adequately in the reported literature. With newer generations, Gen Z and centennials, taking up key positions in the organizations it was imperative to conduct such study. Keywords: Employee toxicity, employee engagement, IT employees
