Organizational culture is also a significant contributor of the psychological contract and psychological is contract fulfillment. The empirical findings confirmed that conflict among work and family responsibilities can be very harmful for relational and transactional psychological contract. Psychological contract fulfillment also decreases as a result of clash in work and family responsibilities. Relational psychological contract, transactional psychological contract and psychological contract all had impact on attitudes (organizational citizenship behavior, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, job insecurity and stress) and behaviors (turnover intentions and knowledge sharing) of employees.
