Abstract: This study aims to assess the impact of Employee Engagement (EE) on counterproductive work behavior. An adopted survey instrument comprised of EE and CWB was used. Data was composed from academic staff through self-administered questionnaire. The sample entailed 199 respondents randomly drawn from academic staff of the universities owned by private sector. The instruments were found reliable and valid. The statistical tools such as descriptive statistics score, ANOVA, Ftest, T-test, coefficient correlations and regressions were used to analyze the data. The upshots of the study proposed sufficient evidence for the correlation between EE and CWB and concluded a negative connection between these two variables. The study recommended that universities shall focus more on EE in order to reduce the CWB and hence increase the overall employees performance. Academics can incorporate results of this study to develop models that would promote the EE and CWB area.
