The current study provides a conceptual framework to examine the effect of perceived workplace incivility from supervisors on four types of employee silence behavior according to motivations that are deviant, relational, defensive, and ineffectual silence. Pilot testing for the questionnaire was done to verify its validity and reliability. Then, copies of the final version of the questionnaire were distributed online to demonstrators and lecturer assistants in Mansoura University to collect primary data. Out of the distributed copies, 320 questionnaires were valid. Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach was applied to test the research hypotheses. Results showed support for all research hypotheses. Supervisor incivility were found to directly, significantly, and positively impact four types of employee silence at faculties of Mansoura University. Practical implications are presented in addition to future research suggestions.
