Abstract

This study attempts to understand the relationship amongst key psychological constructs in the context of Indian Gen Y employees who comprise almost half of the Indian working population and is growing at a rapid pace. Preliminary studies and efforts related to deciphering these young employees have classified them as the most demanding population with high expectations from the work environment in terms of better on-site support facilities and norms for work-life balance. The research proposed to understand the causal relationship between their expectations from organizations (POS) in terms of organizational support and its effect on outcomes related to job satisfaction and turnover intention through a critical analysis and fact finding process. This study indicated Indian Gen Y employees placing more emphasis on organizational support factors that highlight their capabilities and provide tools for advancement.
