Abstract: Abstract: It is crucial for the company to manage the exchange relationship with its employees, that is, Employee-Organization Relationship (EOR). Present researches on EOR have been conducted either from employee’s perspective or from employer’s perspective, only a few of them tried to study it from dual perspectives. Based on the literature review on related researches, the I-P/C model of EOR from dual perspectives is developed and tested empirically. The findings are as follows: (1) comparing with economic inducements developmental inducements has a stronger and wider effect on employee’s contributions; (2) perceptual incongruence of inducements between employees and their supervisors do have a moderating effect on the exchange between organizational inducements and employee’s contributions; (3) reciprocal EOR can benefit more to both employee and employer.

Key words: social exchange, dual perspectives, I-P/C model, perceptual incongruence of inducements
