“…The study further suggested that supervisors that use immoral language and hostile nonverbal behavior to their employees generally fail to push them to responsively achieve the organizational goals. Accordingly, study by Forrester et al (2016) have asserted that supervisor's abusive attitude can result in depleting psychological resources of the employees thus resulting in elements such as anxiety, frustration and work demotivation.

Distribution networks and services are one of the major business drivers in any economy. The present study attempted to examine what is the impact of some of the deleterious work prospects on employees working in the distribution businesses on their psychological work wellbeing. Therein, the study examined the role and impact on work stressors including abusive supervision, emotional demands and workload on employees work engagement. Five major distribution companies were sampled in the present study to examine these relationships on the staff level employees. Structural equation modelling using PLS 2.0 M3 resulted in significant negative impact of abusive supervision on employees' work engagement. Accordingly, emotional demands also posed a significant negative impact on employees' psychological resources thus decreasing their work engagement. In parallel, workload also reported a significant negative impact in a similar fashion. The study has forwarded noteworthy implications based on findings for the distribution businesses in particular and service based occupations in general. The study also sheds light on limitation and scope for future studies.
