Abstract: The present chapter endeavors to map the psychological contract expectations of Gen Z members in a digital world context. Relied on theoretical underpinnings of psychological contract theory and generational cohort perspective, a conceptual framework is proposed representing the work expectations and preferences of Gen Z members. Gen Z members harbor high expectations in terms of workplace flexibility, learning and development opportunities, career advancement pathways, access to latest technologies, consistent feedback, work-life balance, and a social atmosphere. The conceptual framework of this study offers insights into the high expectations held by Gen Z members, which acts as a guiding mechanism for human resource managers to tailor generation-specific policies to tap the potential of this upcoming workforce segment
