Abstract

Economic, social, political, and technological changes are switching how organisations manage their employees.  The classic management models are insufficient to answer the new organisation's realities, and the need to explore constructs related to the relationship between employees and employers arises.

This study links the higher education teacher's engagement and psychological contract in Portugal. The methodology used was a structural equation model with partial least squares estimation (PLS-SEM). A total of 1.143 participants proved that there is a positive and significant relationship between engagement and limitations, stability, performance support, development, and psychological contract fulfilment dimensions.
