Abstract
The study investigated the role of Employee empowerment on organizational
trust and role innovation among 272 employees drawn from the University of
Nigeria, Nsukka. Organization trust was assessed with 32-item scale that
addresses five dimensions of trust built from Mishra’s (1996) model for
organizational trust, while employee work empowerment was assessed with
12-item empowerment scale developed and validated by Spreitizer (1995).
Role innovation was measured with 6-item scale originally developed by west
(1987). Results showed that employee work empowerment positively predicted
organizational trust (B=.27,P .01)., while it negatively predicted role
innovation (B=-. 15,P .05). The findings and implications were discussed
based on the theoretical and empirical background and in relation to Nigeria
socio- economic realities. Limitations of the study were highlighted andsuggestions made for further research
