Abstract

Ethical values act as the most powerful deterrent against counterproductive work behaviors in various environments, especially in work environments. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between high-performance work activities and counterproductive work behaviors with respect to the mediating role of perceived organizational support in the branches of Saderat Bank of Zabol. The statistical population of this research is all employees, managers and experts in branches of Saderat Bank of Zabol. Based on the Cochran sample size formula with limited population, 294 statistical units were selected as the samples. Also, in order to describe the data analysis and to test the hypotheses of the research, inferential statistics and structural equation modeling method have been used which have been analyzed by Amos software. The results of the test of research hypotheses show that (empowerment, reward and promotion) have a positive relationship with perceived organizational support and, on the other hand, a perceived organizational support has a negative relationship with counterproductive work behavior. Also, empowerment and promotion through perceived organizational support have a significant impact on counterproductive work behavior. Empowerment, reward and promotion, as high-performance work activities, are affected by perceived organizational support for counterproductive work behavior.
