Summary:It is an ordinary wonder these days, in different organizations, to see that the employees abuse the essential authoritative rules, and participate in a behavior, which ends up being hostile to the organization. This sort of behavior, which is a deviation from the rules set some place by the organization is called "Deviational workplace behaviors." This study investigates factors influencing employee deviant behavior in the workplace. The objectives were to determine these factors and rank them based on their impact on deviant behavior. The research employed an exploratory and descriptive approach. Primary data was collected from 100 professors working in deemed universities using a structured questionnaire with 40 questions on a 5-point Likert scale. Secondary data was gathered from various journals. Reliability was tested using Cronbach's alpha, and factor analysis was conducted using SPSS software to determine the relative strength of each factor.
