چکیده
In this paper, we examine how migrants‟ perceptions of psychological contract fulfillment affect their job performance. In addition, we also examine the mediating role of job involvement and moderating role of labor contract. Data were obtained from 305 employees from 14 construction companies in South China. Results reveal that: a) the psychological contract fulfillment is positively related with job involvement; b) job involvement fully mediates the psychological contract fulfillment – job performance relationship; and c) labor contract moderates the relationship between psychological contract fulfillment and job involvement. Implications of the findings are discussed.
