Abstract

The purpose of this research is to study a new dimension in the research base of employee's intention to sabotage. Its purpose is to elaborate on the impact of abusive supervision and grapevine on employees' intention to sabotage with employee cynicism as the mediator. The review of the literature conducted explains and highlights the role of an employee's intention to sabotage. Study indicates that abusive supervision and grapevine has a positive relationship with the employee's intention to sabotage and that the employee cynicism creates full mediation between abusive supervision, grapevine, and intention to sabotage. The limitation of the study is that this study is quantitative n nature and focusing on a recent dimension in the field so many loopholes can be identified by other researchers and they can explore this dimension of employees' intention to sabotage in more depth in future. The aim of the study is to explore the link between variables which are not get related in the past researches and it will ultimately help identify a new dimension in the research field of employee commitment to change and open u new path for future research.
