Abstract: In this study, the effect of ethical leadership on extra-role service behavior, and the role of person–organization fit and organizational trust on this effect were examined. A multi-level research model was established in the research and hypotheses were tested within this model. The data of this research study were obtained from 205 workers of two hospitals (public and private), in a certain province in Turkey. The obtained findings demonstrated that ethical leadership strengthened the trust in the organization both directly and over person–organization fit. Moreover, based on the findings, it was determined that ethical leadership increased extra-role service behavior by means of organizational trust. The theoretical and practical implications of all of the findings were discussed and evaluated in the context of national culture.
