Green building gains its popularity by having various benefits like optimising energy consumption, promoting long-term cost savings, and addressing global climate change. Inevitably, inappropriate operation and mainte-nance practice becomes a barrier in sustaining green buildings. Thus, there is an urgent need to recommend a sound operation and maintenance strategy that can tackle the issues. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is seen as the comprehensive strategy, provided the organisation employees can take part in the operation and maintenance activities. So, this paper aims to investigate the TPM enablers to encourage the employee partici-pation in operation and maintenance activities of green buildings. Seven TPM enablers were identified via literature review. Then, 417 responded questionnaires were analysed to examine the association between the TPM enablers and employee participation. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were carried out to verify and further elaborate the survey results. The findings demonstrated that all determined TPM enablers have significant associations with employee participation. The regression analysis further filtered and retained only three TPM enablers as the significant predictors of employee participation. This study is valuable to the orga-nisations in effort to implement TPM in operation and maintenance of green buildings. It signifies the importance of knowledge, awareness, and communication to promote employee participation in operation and maintenance. It also aids to plan and conduct the training and education programmes in a more rational direction prior to the TPM implementation.
