Abstract :

The aim of the present study was to systematically review Iranian researches with a focus on effectiveness researches conducted on working women in the period of 2018-2023. This study is a type of secondary research and is considered a systematic review according to the implementation method. Document analysis method was used to collect data, which included all published effectiveness studies (2018-2023) and a total of 45 studies were examined. The information obtained was made by the researcher's checklist tool and the summary of the contents was presented in the form of tables. What emerged from the review of the articles published in the last 5 years was that researchers are looking for positive organizational behavior, which is followed by an increase in the strengthening of employees' psychological resources, and this is while working women, due to the connection with the environment outside the home and On the other hand, they are under a lot of stress due to their maternal responsibility. Therefore, considering the role of women, in society, work-family conflict has negative consequences for the psychosocial health of working women and their families, and it also affects the optimal performance of organizations, hence it is suggested that researches on the effectiveness of work-conflict be carried out in the future.
