The study uses Partial Least Squares (PLS) path-modeling technique to test the hypotheses proposed in this research. Some findings derived from this research are contrary to previous studies owing to the specific context examined in this research.

There is no significant association found between job insecurity and knowledge hiding. Whereas, work engagement has a significant association with knowledge sharing and burnout. Finally, burnout is significantly related to knowledge hiding behavior among expatriate employees.

If there is success in an organization, it does not only belong to the managers; employees also have an important role in this success.
