    This study focused on complexity adaptability behaviour, psychological capital and work life balance in Uganda. The objectives of the study included, to examine the relationship between complexity adaptability behaviour and work life balance, to examine the relationship between complexity adaptability and psychological capital, to examine the relationship between psychological capital and work life balance and to examine the mediating role of psychological capital on the relationship between complexity adaptability behaviour and work life balance. The study employed a case study research design and the quantitative research approach. The sample size was 303 participants which was determined following Krejcie, and Morgan (1970) statistical table. Data was collected using a questionnaire with closed-ended questions and it was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS ver. 23) to produce means, standard deviation, relationships and regression. The study findings revealed that there was a positive and significant relationship between complexity adaptability behaviour and work life balance (r = .621**, p<.05) and also there is a positive and significant relationship between psychological capital and work life balance (r = .637**, p<.05). Regression analysis revealed (Adjusted R square = .595) and a good fit for the model (F= 222.470, p < 0.05). Complexity adaptability behaviour predicted work life balance by 31.5 percent while psychological capital predicted work life balance by 40.8 percent. The results therefore revealed that psychological capital is the main predictor of work life balance. The study recommends quantitative research method, enforcement of existing labour laws, and implementation of flexible work hours and promotion of physical and mental wellbeing.
