Innovative work behavior is a key factor for the effectiveness and survival of the organization in the face of competition in the free market. Therefore, it is important to conduct research on what factors can increase innovative work behavior. This study aims to examine the effect of structural empowerment and work autonomy on innovative work behavior in Plantation Companies. Respondents in this study were 173 supervisor level employees from state-owned plantation companies in Indonesia who were selected by simple random sampling technique. Structural equation modeling is used to test the hypothesis of this research. The findings show that work autonomy has a positive and significant effect on innovative work behavior, but structural empowerment has no effect on increasing innovative work behavior. Suggestions in this study are the need for a mediator variable so that structural empowerment can improve innovative work behavior.Keywords: Structural Empowerment, Work Autonomy, Innovative Work Behavior.
