Abstract

Purpose This paper is aimed at examining the impact of three types of psychological contracts such as transactional, relational and balanced contract on affective commitment by keeping meaningful work (MFW) as a mediator in this relationship. Design/methodology/approach The data of 355 employees was collected from the large heavy Indian manufacturing organizations. The mediation path was analyzed through SPSS macro computational tool, i.e. PROCESS. Findings The result suggests that MFW partially mediates the relationship between all three types of psychological contract and affective commitment. Originality/value The study adds value to research in organizational behavior and human psychology by providing new insights on employee-employer relationships, MFW, and commitment.
