Thriving at work attracted the interests of many of academics and practitioners at different areas especially in psychology, organizational behavior and human resource management in the last few years. Thus, this research aims at investigating the relationship between organizational justice, leadership style and thriving at work. For testing the proposed model and the developed hypotheses, this research is based on a collected data from a proportional stratified random sample of 384 nurses who are working in two educational hospitals at Cairo University in Egypt. The obtained results from the analyzed data indicated that: (a) there is a strong, positive and significant relationship between organizational justice and thriving at work level, (b) the nurses’ perception for distributive justice is more strongly related to their thriving level than the relationship between their perceived for the procedural justice, (c) there is a strong, positive and significant relationship between leadership style and thriving at work level among the nurses, (d) transformational leadership is more strongly related with thriving at work level than the transactional ones, (e) organizational justice (distributive and procedural) and leadership style (transformational and transactional) operating jointly and explaining 54.2% of the nurses’ thriving at work level variation.
