The existence of destructive conflicts, lack of transparency and lack of interaction between generations working in an organization, as well as the lack of constructive organizational communication, have created challenges in most organizations. However, few attempts have been made to discover the pathology of the generation gap in the workplace and to empirically examine the nature, causes, and reactions to such harms. The main objective of this research was to identify the pathology of the generation gap among employees of the Tehran Petroleum Industry Health and Treatment Organization. The research was of a mixed type (qualitative-quantitative) that used semi-structured interviews with a qualitative method, and the interviews were conducted until the theoretical saturation stage. Then, the data were analyzed based on the systematic approach of Strauss and Corbin in three steps: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. By establishing a relationship between the concepts and categories produced in the open coding stage, the process of linking in axial coding was achieved. In the quantitative part of the research population, all employees with a bachelor's degree or higher in the organization were identified, 305 people, and 170 of them were selected by simple random sampling based on the Cochran formula. The main tool for collecting information in the quantitative part was a questionnaire, which was finally analyzed using the structural equation model and Smart PLS software. The results of the research showed that the main harms to the Tehran Oil Petroleum Industry Health and Treatment Organization were the lack of conflict management, lack of employee participation, employee competition, and communication barriers.

Today, more than ever before, organizations are faced with the diversity of human resources, which is considered the most important effective factor and competitive advantage, and one of the factors of this diversity, in addition to the existing differences, is the difference between generations, which has always been a factor in creating problems and has received less attention in researches. In this research, the expectations of working generations from the compensation process of human resources services based on the 34000 model in Tejarat Bank were identified. The upcoming research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive in terms of data collection. The philosophy of interpretive research, the approach of inductive theory development, the methodological choice of research is qualitative, the research strategy is theme analysis, the time horizon of research is cross-sectional, and the data collection tool is semi-structured interview. Therefore, using the maximum diversity sampling method, a semi-structured interview was conducted with 30 personnel of X, Y and Z working generations in the human capital management of Tejarat Bank. A total of 30 interviews and their analysis led to the identification of 3 main themes, 23 sub-themes and 79 conceptual categories. The identification of the expectations of working generations from the service compensation process was based on the mentioned model, and based on the research findings in the service compensation process, due to the economic conditions governing the society, the needs of all three generations are similar in most of the themes, and there are also differences in the details. At the end of the article, the limitations of the research are mentioned and suggestions for future research are presented.
