It was fundamental quantitative research carried out using meta-analytical methods. The research community included previous studies (articles and theses) from Iran and other countries, covering the years 2000 to 2024. After identifying 29 studies based on specific criteria and extracting relevant variables, the effect size was calculated and analyzed using CMA2 software. The analysis revealed that environmental factors (effect size 0.756) were the most significant Antecedents, while other environmental factors (0.584) also played a crucial role. Among the eight identified Antecedents, the corporate social responsibility variable showed a small effect size, at the same time, engagement, HR maturity, strategy, and moderate high-performance work systems had a moderate effect size. Leadership style, social capital, and institutional pressures had a strong effect size. Among the 25 outcomes, customer satisfaction and poor employability skills had a small effect size , while employee behavior, job pursuit intention, moderate sustainability, and innovation performance had a moderate effect size. Strong outcomes included phonetic behavior, assisting behavior, empowerment, commitment, participation; leave of service, social sustainability, social capital, organizational culture, knowledge sharing, corporate social responsibility, organizational attractiveness, organizational support, employee retention, citizenship behavior, economic sustainability, organizational resilience, environmental sustainability, and environmental performance.
