Psychological Contract in the Indian Aviation Sector

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between the Employers’ and Employees’ psychological contract along transactional, relational, balanced and transitional parameters in the context of Indian civil aviation sector and found that all the subdimensions of the major construct have statistically significant correlations and that a change in one dimension can effect a statistically significant variation in its corresponding dimension. The descriptive statistics showed that all the dimensions of Employees’ psychological contract, except for Employers’ ‘Narrow’ dimension of Transactional contract and ‘Mistrust’ dimension of Transitional contract, have slightly higher values than all other Employers’ contract dimensions. Though the values between the constructs do not have substantial variations, it is noted that the Employers have higher ‘transactional’ and ‘transitional’ focus and the Employees have higher ‘Relational’ and ‘Balanced’ focus. The findings of the study suggest that the organizations must thrust upon ‘relational psychological contract’ to minimize dysfunctional consequences of breach and employee turnover.
