knowledge gap exists regarding the relationship between ethical leadership and
employee internal and extremals community citizenship behavior. Hence, this study
attempts to fill this knowledge gap. The objectives of this study are to identify the
level, relationship and impact of ethical leadership on employee community
citizenship behaviors. To achieve these objectives data was collected from garment
sector employee in Nuwara Eliya district. The data were analyzed by using
descriptive, correlation analyses and multiple regression analyses. The study
hypotheses were examined using empirical literature and collected data. A strong
