Idiosyncratic deals has become a more and more popular human resource management practice, which is particularly important to stimulate employees' creativity. This paper shows that the idiosyncratic deals has a positive impact on creativity, and the perceived insider status mediates the relationship between the idiosyncratic deals and creativity; Psychological safety positively moderates the relationship between idiosyncratic deals and perceived insider status, and further moderates the mediating role of perceived insider status. Therefore, this study suggests that enterprises should make full use of the "non-standard" characteristics of idiosyncratic deals to give play to the heterogeneous talents of employees, and at the same time, enhance the sense of psychological safety to help employees bravely put forward new ideas and methods to promote creativity.
