The Workplace Flourishing Questionnaire (PERMA) is developed by Kern and was administered in Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, and the United States and its psychometric properties were reported. Although flourishing in general and in the workplace is significant, it’s not mentioned in Iran. Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the PERMA flourishing Questionnaire at work for teachers in Iran. Method: current research is a descriptive study. 394 teachers have responded to the translated version of the online flourishing questionnaire. Results: The factor structure of the flourishing scale has been investigated by confirmatory factor analysis. And the model fit indices, indicate that the model fits well with the data. Chi-square (χ 2) with the value of 2339/17 and degree of freedom 80, softened chi-square (χ2/df= 2/989), comparisons fit index (CFI= 0/98), goodness of fit index (0/95 GFI= goodness of fit index (AGFI= 0/96) and second root mean squared error approximations (RMSEA= 0/065) were all at the desired level indicating goodness of fit with the conceptual model. Conclusions: Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the model of flourishing PERMA. Was applied in different samples including Iranian teachers group.
