The relational contract is based on mutual trust, respect, and social exchange, and it focuses on the quality of the relationship between the employee and the employer. In today's environment, organisations are placing less strategic value on this contract, which is resulting in employees feeling more stress, anxiety and displaying counterproductive work behaviours. The reward contract focuses on the tangible and intangible rewards that employees receive in exchange for their work, and the transactional contract focuses on the job duties, responsibilities, and performance expectations. The ideologically infused contract focuses on shared values and beliefs, and it is not a commonly recognised type of psychological contract.
