Major amongst the most imperiousproblems will be procuring, preparing, overseeing and holding millennial employees. A theoretical commitment of this examination is that it joins two territories of research not already explored together with regards to establishments; psychological contracts and worker retention. The outcomes show that there is a solid connection between psychological contract satisfaction and employee engagement, however the relationship does not seem, by all accounts, to be directed by some other factor, for example, age, gender or tenure. Following specific results were from a practical perspective, there is a growing interest in understanding employee engagement, as it is perceived that the growth and prosperity of organizations will rely heavily on the committed and competent workforce. The suggestion that the relationship between PCfulfilment and ER are positively related irrespective of age and gender is indicative of the fact that management need to pay more focus on the fulfilment of motivating psychological contract rather than adherence to merely hygiene factors.
