Abstract:

Nowadays, the strong relationship between the work and family systems as well as their interaction has been known considerably more than ever and a large number of research has been conducted to meet the challenges of these systems. One of the effective strategies in this field is to replace the organisation with a family-friendly organisation. The first step in doing basic studies in this field is to establish the main indicators of family-friendly organisation. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to define and validate the proposed indicators of family-friendly organisation. This study is an applied research in terms of its purpose and a (mixed) exploratory research in terms of its strategy. In the first place, a literature review was taking place based on combinatorial meta-analysis method. Then, thematic analysis was used for identification of related codes and Subsequently, a conceptual framework of family-friendly organisation’s indicators was presented. Secondly, an exclusive interview about the conceptual framework were done with some experts, which led to definition of family-friendly organisation’s indicators. Finally, the validity of the proposed criteria was confirmed by Delphi method. Thirty general concepts were defined, which were categorized into ten main concepts.
