This study explores the impact of workplace culture, including co-worker and supervisor support, on discrimination against women in the workplace and examines how Islamic behaviours could mitigate this. Research data was collected using a survey approach. A set of questionnaires consisting of 104 items measuring women’s discrimination, workplace culture, and Islamic leadership key behaviours were manually distributed to the selected sample. 350 questionnaires from 768 sets, contributing to 46 per cent, were collected from women employees in 13 Malaysian government-linked companies. The data were analysed using SPSS 26 and SEM on the AMOS 26 version. The findings indicate that Islamic leadership's key behaviours as the moderator and workplace culture significantly influence women’s discrimination in the workplace. All four workplace culture variables, including co-worker support, supervisor support, employer-work-family support and advancement opportunities, indicate significant influence in the relationship with women’s discrimination. The results of the analysis reveal that Islamic leadership key behaviours have a full moderating effect on the relationship between workplace culture and women’s discrimination in the workplace. These findings broaden the application of the underlying theories and their principles in elucidating the significance of workplace culture in mitigating women’s discrimination, thereby contributing to the existing body of knowledge.
