The effects of psychological contract breach on various employee level outcomes: The moderating role of Islamic work ethic and adversity quotient

This study seeks to explore the moderating role of Islamic work ethic and adversity quotient over the relationship between psychological contract breach and various employees' level outcomes ( job satisfaction, employees' commitment and intention to quit). After the extensive overview of scholarly research, we have come up with a conceptual model that perception of psychological contract breach has negative relationship with job satisfaction, affective commitment and positive relationship with intention to quit. Islamic work ethics and adversity quotient have positive moderating impact upon the perceived psychological contract breach, and various employee level outcomes are further strengthened, if employees lack adversity quotient and low Islamic work ethic.
