Abstract Grounded in the social information processing theory, this study collected data from 308 employees at three time points, and used the hierarchical regression analysis and Bootstrap method to reveal the influence mechanism of humble leadership on employees’ counterproductive workplace behavior. We then propose a moderated mediation model in which the perceived insider status is the mediator and human resource management(HRM) system strength is the moderator. The results are as follows: Firstly, humble leadership negatively predicts the emergence of counterproductive work behaviors of employees. Secondly, the association between humble leadership and employees’ counterproductive workplace behavior is partially mediated by perceived insider status. Thirdly, HRM system strength reinforces the positive role of humble leadership on perceived insider status. Finally, HRM system strength moderates the mediating effect of employees’ perceived insider status, indicating that the mediating role of perceived insider status is stronger when HRM system strength is higher.
