Abstract At present, China's traditional manufacturing industry is being transformed into an innovation-driven manufacturing industry. As the innovation subject of enterprises, manufacturing employees have an important impact on enterprise innovation by fully stimulating their innovation behavior. Compared with the traditional reactive innovation behavior, active innovation behavior is a kind of innovation behavior from the perspective of individual internal motivation, and it emphasizes employees' initiative and spontaneity, and can have a far-reaching impact on organizational performance. Therefore, the active innovation behavior of manufacturing employees can bring high-quality innovation performance and contribute to the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry.#br#There have been studies on the antecedents of active innovation behavior, mainly focusing on external environmental factors such as leadership style, organizational climate and management practice, while empirical research from the perspective of individual characteristics of employees is relatively scarce, and needs to be further strengthened. As a kind of individual trait, trait mindfulness can promote individuals to focus on themselves, so as to better stimulate employees' internal motivation and initiative behavior. At present,research on the mechanism of employees' trait mindfulness on active innovation behavior is very rare. To address these issues, this study takes manufacturing employees as the research object. Drawing on self-determination theory, social identity theory and the socially embedded model of thriving at work, it constructs a chain mediating model of trait mindfulness acting on manufacturing employees' active innovation behavior through professional identity and thrive at work, and introduces the organizational factor of caring ethical climate as a moderating variable according to the social context theory, so as to explore the mechanism and boundary effect of trait mindfulness on the active innovation behavior of manufacturing employees, and thus it has certain theoretical value and practical significance.#br#This study collects data by electronic questionnaires distributed in 30 provinces including Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Zhejiang, etc., and the subjects are mainly employees in manufacturing industries such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, automobile manufacturing, computer, communication and other electronic equipment manufacturing. After screening and eliminating invalid data, 536 valid samples are obtained. Regression analysis and hypothesis test are carried out by SPSS, Amos and other data analysis softwares. The main effect and mediating effect test, chain mediating test and moderating effect test are carried out. The results of empirical analysis show that all the hypotheses proposed in this study have been confirmed, and the following conclusions are obtained: trait mindfulness has a positive impact on active innovation behavior;professional identity and thrive at work play a part of mediating role between trait mindfulness and active innovation behavior, and play a chain mediating role together;caring ethical climate plays a positive role in the relationship between trait mindfulness, professional identity and thrive at work, and the moderating role of caring ethical climate on the influence of trait mindfulness on thrive at work is more significant.#br#The above research results enrich and deepen the research in related fields, and have certain theoretical innovation and practical significance. Firstly, from the perspective of individual internal dynamics, this study innovatively selects the antecedents of employees' active innovation behavior from the perspectives of cognition, emotion and behavior. It enriches the theoretical research on the antecedents of active innovation behavior. Secondly, it constructs a chain mediating transmission mechanism with double intermediaries, which deeply reveals the internal mechanism of trait mindfulness triggering employees' active innovation behavior, and makes up for the lack of existing literature on the relationship between trait mindfulness and employees' active innovation behavior. Thirdly, this study introduces the caring ethical climate at the organizational level as a moderating variable, and clarifies the boundary conditions for the effect of trait mindfulness on employees' active innovation behavior. Finally, according to the empirical analysis results, this study puts forward effective management countermeasures and suggestions on how to stimulate employees' active innovation behavior in manufacturing enterprises, mainly including cultivating employees' mindfulness levels, stimulating employees' internal innovation motivation and creating a mutually beneficial and win-win enterprise atmosphere, which has a certain practical guiding significance for manufacturing enterprises to improve human resource management mechanism.#br#
