Abstract
This study explores the influence of leadership behavior on employee commitment, with a focus on the moderating role of organizational justice in the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE). Leadership behavior, as a critical element in shaping employee outcomes, is examined in terms of its effect on the level of employee commitment within the CBE. The study further investigates how organizational justice, moderates this relationship. The study adopts a explanatory and descriptive research design and a method approach; quantitative data were collected from employees of CBE. Out of a total of 1134 target population, a sample size of 284 was taken using the Yamane, formula sample size determination model and stratified sampling technique was used for collecting information from the organization. The data was analyzed in both descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were figured using Statistical Package for social sciences (SPSS) version 26.The result of the study confirmed that there was statistically significant positive relationship between supportive, participative, achievement oriented, organizational justice with moderating integration behavior and employee commitment however, there is no statistically significant relationship between directive behavior with employee commitment a further research was also recommended on other banks collectively The findings reveal that leadership behavior positively influences employee commitment, and that organizational justice significantly moderates this relationship. Specifically, when employees perceive fairness in organizational processes and interactions, the positive impact of leadership behavior on commitment is enhanced.
