The purpose of the analysis is to assess the high-performance work system (HPWS)moderating impact on the relationship between work-life balance (WLB) and employee innovative work behaviour (IWB). This paper focuses on the quantitative analysis method on 4 hypotheses, 252 respondents and the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) as the technique of analysis. The two factors: Blending and Flexibility of WLB are found to be the WLB’s major effect on innovative behaviour of employees. The study also observed the moderating effect of HPWS on the relationship between work-life balance and innovative behaviour among the subject employees. In this regards, innovative work behaviour of the employees working for Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) companies operating in the Sultanate of Oman as observed by this study can be further fine-tuned and employers are recommended to look into and concentrate on the discussed factors of WLB along with HPWS. The research emphasizes the significance of the relationship between work and life and suggests that employees can be encouraged to develop innovative behaviour when the WLB is offered.
