Abstract This study investigates the relationship between ethical leadership and employee engagement within the cold chain logistics sector, emphasizing the critical role of coordination, integrity, and accountability in operational success. Ethical leadership—characterized by honesty, fairness, transparency, and moral responsibility—is believed to positively influence employees’ motivation, commitment, and engagement. The research focuses on analysing how ethical leadership impacts various dimensions of engagement such as emotional commitment and enthusiasm, while also examining organizational factors like trust, communication, and culture that enhance this impact. Data collection involves structured questionnaires administered to logistics and warehousing employees, with insights drawn from transformational leadership and organizational behaviour theories. The study aims to link ethical leadership practices to improved employee engagement and operational efficiency, ultimately highlighting the value of ethical, empathetic leadership in building a motivated, high-performing workforce.
