While many researchers have conducted several studies on the effect of ethical leadership on citizenship behavior, in different contexts, however, not much is known about the moral mechanisms that make it possible for leader behaviors to produce follower outcomes in the form of organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) especially, Interpersonal OCBs (OCBI). For this, we proposed a theoretical framework, thereby modifying Zoghbi-Manrique-de-Lara & Viera-Armas (2019) model to include Organizational Justice. Hence, we aim to empirically investigate the Relationship between Ethical Leadership and OCBI while considering the various determinants of Workplace Compassion (i.e. empathic concern, common humanity, mindfulness, and kindness), and Organizational Justice (i.e. procedural justice, distributive justice, and interactional justice) as mediating variables. Empirical validity was established by conducting a survey using a close-ended structured questionnaire. Data was collected from 350 employees and analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis and structured equation modeling. Both direct and indirect effect was tested by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) via SmartPLS software. Thus, the results revealed that: except Common Humanity, ethical leadership was significantly and positively linked to all factors of workplace Compassion (i.e. empathic concern, mindfulness, and kindness), as well as all three factors of organizational Justice (i.e. procedural justice, distributive justice, and interactional justice. However, ethical leadership seems to affect the Mindfulness factor negatively. Moreover, among compassion determinants, only Empathic Concern seems to affect OCBI. Whereas only interactional justice has a significant positive association with OCBI; further, the findings revealed that there is an insignificant mediating effect of workplace compassion and organizational justice in the association between ethical leadership and OCBI. Hence, the research has described the meaningful implications for the organizations
