Rapid developments in the business environment have led to the need for organizations to develop the employee innovative behavior to remain competitive. So, the current study mainly sought to investigate the impact of psychological safety on employee innovation in food companies in Egypt. Based on a survey list that collected data from a sample of (243) employees in the selected food companies, the results indicated that psychological safety has a positive impact on employee innovation and its three dimensions, namely idea generation, idea promotion and idea realization. In addition to that, it was found that Marital Status moderates the relationship between Psychological Safety and Employee Innovation. as, it has been shown that this positive relationship between psychological safety and employee innovation is greater among married people than among single ones. This is because married people are more stable in their families, which enhances a part of their psychological safety. Thus, some recommendations were presented, and some future studies were suggested.
