Abstract
The purpose of this study is to assess how workplace micro-inequalities affects work engagement, specifically in terms of employee silence and knowledge sharing. Additionally, it seeks to examine the role of psychological contract breach in moderating the relationship between microinequalities and silence. The findings of this study indicate that workplace micro-inequalities is positively associated with employee silence and negatively associated with work engagement. Furthermore, the results demonstrate significant relationships among all moderation and mediated variables. However, the results suggest that workplace micro- inequalities does not have a positive impact. It is important to note that this study has certain limitations, including the use of a survey-based questionnaire, a cross-sectional research design, and convenience-based sampling. Nevertheless, the insights from this study have valuable for practitioners and policymakers in developing anti-micro-inequalities laws that foster a positive work environment which promotes equal workplace opportunities for all employees.
