| Summary: | This study investigates the factors influencing employee acceptance of workforce diversity in Islamic Financial Institution in Malaysia. Grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), the research focuses on three independent variables attitude toward diversity, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and one additional predictor of perceived organizational support to enhance the model’s explanatory power, and examines their relationship with the dependent variable, employee acceptance. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from employees in Islamic banking institutions. The findings reveal significant relationships between these psychological and organizational constructs and employee acceptance, providing empirical insights to support inclusive workplace practices rooted in both behavioral theory and Islamic ethical values. This research contributes to the literature on diversity management within Islamic banking and informs strategies to foster inclusive work environments in Malaysia’s Islamic finance sector |
