  Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of reality therapy approach in correcting the anti-productivity behaviors of employees of Rahbaran Information Technology Company in Tehran. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study was a quasi-experimental two-group design with a control group. The statistical population of this study included all full-time employees in Tehran Information Technology Leaders Company in 2013-2014. The study population in this company was 103 employees. The sample size according to Cochran's formula was 30 people and was selected using random sampling method. To collect data, the Marsus (2002) anti-productivity test with 64 seven-choice questions in 5 components (violence, theft, substance abuse and absenteeism) was used. Therapeutic interventions in the reality therapy approach were performed in eight sessions of 90 minutes per session. Descriptive and inferential statistics (analysis of variance, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and analysis of covariance) were used to analyze the data. Result: The results showed that therapeutic interventions in the reality therapy approach were significantly effective in reducing three of the four components of anti-productivity behaviors, namely violence, theft and absenteeism, but were unsuccessful in reducing employees' addictive behavior ( P <0.05). Conclusion: According to the findings, it is observed that the reality therapy approach has been effective in correcting anti-productivity behaviors. Manuscript profile
