This study is intended to identify the consequences of the Islamic work ethic in the organization. Hence, the consequences of Islamic work ethics in the organization were first identified by reviewing the literature and interviewing the experts at academic centers and religious schools of Kerman. Having identified the consequences, a questionnaire was designed and was distributed among the subjects. The statistical population of the study consists of university staff of Kerman including about 740 employees. A random sample of 350 university staff was selected based on Morgan's table. 216 valid responses were collected. The validity and reliability of the research questionnaire were tested using Cronbach's alpha and confirmatory factor analysis. The results confirmed the reliability and validity of the questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to answer the research hypotheses. Findings indicate that the implications of Islamic work ethics are realized in both individual and social domains. In the individual domain, the implications of Islamic work ethics include protecting human esteem, individual peace, and peaceful workplace. The implications of Islamic work ethic for the target community resulted in the strengthening of social communication and social justice in the social domain.
