This study examines the relationship between perceptions of high‐commitment HRM, person‐organization (P‐O) fit, organizational engagement, and deviant workplace behaviors. Drawing on social exchange theory (SET) and P‐O fit theory, a mediated moderation model is proposed in which P‐O fit moderates the relationship between high‐commitment HRM and organizational engagement, which, in turn, relates to deviant behaviors. Using two multilevel multisource datasets, from a shipping management company (Study 1) and an international seaport (Study 2), the results of generalized multilevel structural equation modeling (GSEM) revealed that the relationship between high‐commitment HRM and deviant behaviors was mediated by organizational engagement. Furthermore, a significant indirect relationship was found from high‐commitment HRM perceptions to deviant behaviors through organizational engagement for low, but not for high, P‐O fit. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
