註釋A review of empirical studies related to organizational and personality- related factors and the likelihood of employees engaging in deviant behaviour at work indicates that less attention has been paid to study the effects of organisational formal control on workplace deviance. Drawing upon the organisational control theory, this study examined Honesty-Humility as a boundary condition between organizational formal control and deviant workplace behaviour. Participants in the study consisted of 202 public sector employees from three Federal Polytechnics in north-western Nigeria. As expected, results showed that organizational formal control had a significant negative relationship with workplace deviance. Most notably, we found that the effect of organizational formal control on workplace deviance was moderated by Honesty-Humility. The practical implication of this study is that organizations should conduct personality inventory tests prior to recruitment and selection, as the outcomes of the test could help managers select employees whose values are in line with organisational norms.
