Managers should be aware of the importance of breach of the psychological contract and violation on employee behaviors and the value of deviant behavior in the performance of the organization. After an extensive review of relevant literature on the research problem, research has been conducted by using a sample size of 230 respondents. This data have been selected through random probability sampling and the result has been deducted by using correlation and regression analysis. This research contributes that an employee having low self-control more frequently execute deviant behaviors on the breach of the psychological contract than employee with low self-control. Similarly, it has also been found that revenge attitude strengthens the relationship of psychological contract breach and work place deviant behaviors.
