Abstract

This study examined the impacts of thriving at work on some selected work related attitudes (turnover intentions) and behaviors (workplace incivility). The data was collected from the telecommunication sector of Quetta City through a census. 237 individuals (N=237) from six telecommunication companies participated in the census. Results showed that thriving at work has significant negative relationship with turnover intentions and workplace incivility. Thus, it is concluded that thriving at work is a positive psychological resource to combat and overcome negative work related attitudes and behaviors. In the end, several practical implications and future research directions are discussed.
