The capability to acquire, assimilate, transfer and utilize new knowledge is considered as one of the main sources of the competitive advantage of an organization. This study examined the role of absorptive capacity in the relationship between human resource practices and innovation performance. The empirical tests in a sample of 154 Chinese firms indicated that HR practices were positively related to absorptive capacity which, in turn, had a positive effect on innovation performance. Implications of these results and future research were discussed.
