Abstract
The present study is focused at Indian Generation Y employees who comprise almost half of the Indian working population and
are 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 proposes a conceptual model that seeks to link outlook and approaches of this generation based on their work values
(extrinsic, intrinsic, status-related, freedom-related, and social related) to their expectations from organisations (perceived organisational
support or POS) in terms of organisational support and its causal relationship with job attitudes like affective commitment, felt obligation, job
satisfaction, and turnover intention through outlining relative propositions and giving an understanding about the rationale and significance
of the proposed conceptual model.
