This study examines how psychological empowerment influences the link between organizational factors and ESB, drawing on insights from social exchange and justice theories. Data were collected from 324 employees at private hospitals in Jordan and analyzed using structural equation modeling. Findings indicate that psychological empowerment mitigates the impact of organizational factors on ESB, serving as a protective mechanism against silence in the workplace. The study contributes to theory by highlighting the moderating role of empowerment and offers practical guidance for organizational leaders seeking to foster open communication.
