Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze a perception of employer and employee social role (Goffman, 1959) by diverse social groups (Kostera, 2012) and its consequences for the psychological contract which is a significant relationship factor in working environment (Makin, Cooper, Cox, 2000). Last-year (the fifth year) students from Faculty of Management, Warsaw University, employers and unemployed took part in our research. In order to recognize ideas of respondents we have used projection techniques with metaphors (Morgan, 1997) and then interpretation of metaphors followed. Our research indicated relatively large discrepancy in this area. In conclusions we analyze this collision of respondents’ ideas and expectations, causes of this dissonance and we make an effort of appointing a direction of potential improving actions.
