This study was driven by the central hypothesis that internal marketing plays a key role in promoting human resource ethics, both directly and indirectly through job commitment as a mediating variable. It also examined the moderating role of leadership skills within these relationships. The research was conducted on a sample of 320 employees from Alexandria University Hospitals, with data collected via questionnaires and a response rate of 92%. Structural equation modeling was used for data analysis.
The findings revealed significant positive direct effects of internal marketing on both job commitment (coefficient = 0.558) and human resource ethics (coefficient = 0.244).
