To collect qualitative data, semi-structured interviews (with a sample size of 17 experts using a purposive sampling method) were used, and to collect quantitative data, a questionnaire was designed among the employees of the cinema and audio-visual organization (127 people). The basis of Morgan's table and simple random sampling method) have been used.Thematic analysis method was used to analyze qualitative data and confirmatory factor analysis was used to analyze quantitative data. Based on the qualitative results of the research, seven main components consisting of 64 items for job requirements and job resources affecting job engagement have been identified. The results of the quantitative analysis have also confirmed the significance of the relationship between the indicators, components and dimensions of the model.
