edule (FTS), as part of FWA, as element of autonomy, which can influence WLB (element of relatedness) and job performance (element of competence).Two main objectives of the study is to examine job performance before and after the implementation of Flexible Time Schedule (FTS), as well as investigating the mediating role of Work-Life Balance (WLB) in the relationship between the Flexible Time Schedule (FTS) and job performance, among 82 employees in public sector. Paper based questionnaire was used to collect data using purposive sampling, among employees who opt for FTS. T test showed a significant difference in job performance, that is higher job performance after the FTS. Mediation analysis using PROCESS confirmed that indirect effect does not include zero, indicating that the WLB mediates the relationship between FTS and JP. Thus, it indicates that employees who benefited from FTS experienced better work-life Although Flexible Working Arrangements (FWA) is seen as panacea for Work Life Balance (WLB) and improve job performance, some studies reported blurred boundaries, burnout and lost productivity during Flexible Working Arrangement (FWA). Based on self-determination theory, this study viewed Flexible Time Schedule (FTS)balance, which in turn had a positive impact on their job performance. Thus, it is suggested to expand flexible work arrangement (such as FTS), across the organization, to establish clear work-life balance policies, to improve access to technological resources, conduct regular evaluation of flexible work policies and to provide supervisor training to support flexible work arrangements.
