Wielopokoleniowość pracowników cechują różne systemy wartości, postawy wobec pracy oraz oczekiwania wobec pracodawców, które kształtują relacje zatrudnienia między pracownikiem a pracodawcą w ramach nawiązywanego kontraktu psychologicznego. Ponieważ kontrakty „dorastają” i „starzeją się” wraz z pracownikami, celem artykułu jest wykazanie, że czynnik demograficzny, jakim jest wiek, pośredniczy w tworzeniu i kształtowaniu się kontraktu psychologicznego ze względu na zmienne oczekiwane, jak i oferowane, przez pracowników w drodze wymiany z pracodawcami. Analizę opracowano na podstawie badań własnych, którymi objęto 800 pracowników ze 178 dużych i średnich przedsiębiorstw działających na terenie Polski. Badanie przeprowadzone zostało metodą PAPI, tj. metodą wywiadów bezpośrednich, w którym udział wzięło 272 (34%) pracowników z dużych firm i 528 (66%) – ze średnich. Wyniki badań wykazały, że wraz z wiekiem pracownika zmienia się skłonność do zawierania i realizowania określonych rodzajów kontraktu psychologicznego (tj. transakcyjnego i relacyjnego). Wskazano ponadto, że warunki kontraktu zmieniają się wraz z wiekiem pracowników. Dotyczy to zarówno oczekiwań, jak i podejmowanych zobowiązań wobec pracodawcy.

Generational diversity is characterized by various value systems, attitudes towards work, and the expectations of employers, which shape the employment relationship between the employee and the employer as established within the framework of the psychological contract. Since contracts “grow up” and “grow old” in line with the employees, the aim of the article is to show that the demographic factor of age mediates in creating and shaping the psychological contract because of the variables expected and offered by employees in their exchange with employers. The analysis, based on own research, involved 800 employees from 178 large– and medium–sized companies operating in Poland. The survey was conducted using PAPI—i.e. direct interviews in which 272 (34%) of employees of large companies and 528 (66%) employees of medium companies participated. The results showed that with increasing employee age, tendencies to conclude and implement specific types of psychological contracts (i.e. transactional and relational) change. It is further indicated that the terms of the contract change with employee age. This applies to both expectations and obligations undertaken with respect to the employer.
