Abstract: The present study examines the factors that mediate and moderate the relationship of psychological contract breach (PCB) with innovative work behaviour. Specifically, affective commitment is posited to mediate and collectivism to moderate the above relationship. Data were collected from 707 managers across 12 organisations in India. Hierarchical multiple regression was used for statistical analysis of the moderated-mediation model. Affective commitment was found to mediate the negative relationship between PCB and innovative work behaviour and collectivism moderated the influence of PCB on affective commitment. Results from the moderated mediation analysis revealed that the mediation of affective commitment was moderated by collectivism such that at the lower level of collectivism, the mediation effect of affective commitment became stronger.
