Abstract

Subordinate employees take an example from their manager, so his behavior forms a certain standard in the company. The company's sustainable development depends on the ethics of the leader's behavior and the extent to which employees will follow his example. In addition, each employee contributes to the company's development, and his organizational citizenship behavior is an essential indicator of the overall effectiveness of personnel management. This study aims to determine the effect of ethical leadership on employee performance through organization citizenship behavior. The population in this study is all employees at PT Hasantamma Cemerlang Group, as many as 74 people from 7 branches of the company.

The results of this study show that ethical leadership has a significant positive effect on the employee performance and organizational citizenship behavior. Organizational citizenship behavior has a positive and significant effect on the employee performance. In addition, ethical leadership has a significant positive effect on employee performance through organizational citizenship behavior.
