Abstract: 
The current study aims to explain innovative workplace behavior, motivation level, and perceived stress among healthcare employees. The sample of one hundred (N =100) doctors from Sheikh Zaid Hospital Rahim Yar Khan were recruited conveniently (M 50; F 50). Three highly valid instruments were employed; Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Motivation Questionnaire (MQ), and Innovative Work Scale (IWS). Quantitative crosssectional research design was applied. Data were tabulated through SPSS (21.0.). Statistical techniques; mean, standard deviation, regression, and chi-square were used to test the hypotheses. The results depict there is a significant inverse relationship between perceived stress and motivation. Likewise, significant but inverse relationship exists between perceived stress and innovative workplace behavior of doctors. Conclusively, study proves the potential negative effect of perceived stress on motivation and innovative work behavior among health care employees. Future avenues and limitations of current study are also cordoned off.
