Abstract :
Psychological contract received wide interest among researchers from different countries and became an ideal framework in the study of the employment relationship. In this study, we focused on the impact of organizational behavior on psychological contract breach in China. We conducted an in-depth questionnaire survey to 512 MBAs and senior managements in Zhejiang enterprises. By applying structural equation modeling, we found: the influence of organizational communication behavior on psychological contract breach is not significant; organizational justice has some effect on the psychological contract breach between organizations and their employees; the level of organizational human resources practice has a significant impact on the psychological contract breach.
