Abstract:

An aging phenomenon entitled the Second Adulthood has confronted society’s perception of workplace spirituality and its relation to psychological contracts. As a result, organizations are now faced with developing psychological contracts that are increasingly relational with a refocus on employee development and a broader scope that includes the spiritual needs of employees. In this article, propositions are developed to assert the need for more relational aspects of psychological contracts to bolster workplace spirituality, and ultimately, help satisfy the spiritual needs of employees. Recommendations for transitioning from transactional psychological contracts to more relational and spiritual psychological contracts are provided.
