dc.description.abstractPurpose: The present study aims to explore the employee viewpoint on ethical practices (organisational justice procedural justice), caring practices, employment security, and health and safety as well as organizational commitment (affective commitment) and job performance after mergers and acquisitions within Indian public sector banks. Methods: In the present study, data were collected from SBI and PNB employees after M&As in Indian public sectors. A total of 476 responses were collected from employees through a questionnaire. Data were analysed using IBM SPSS Statistics (Version 26), and the Mann–Whitney U test was applied. Findings: The findings of the study depict that there is no significant difference in the viewpoints of the employees on ethical practices (organisational justice procedural justice), caring practices, employment security, and health and safety as well as organizational commitment (affective commitment) and job performance after mergers and acquisitions within Indian public sector banks. Implications: By providing insights into whether employees have similar or different perceptions of ethical practices, affective commitment, and job performance, this research will be a valuable addition to knowledge about banking within the context of Indian PSBs, particularly with respect to organisational changes resulting from mergers. The results have implications for policymakers, suggesting that similar ethical practices and policies should be followed in the case of further mergers and acquisitions in Indian PSBs. Originality: This research is timely and represents a new and valuable addition to the current scientific literature. To the authors’ knowledge, there has been no empirical investigation conducted on this topic with regard to Indian public sector banks after mergers or acquisitions.
