An initial search yielded 1,583 titles, of which 8 articles met the inclusion criteria.Results: The findings indicate that successful breastfeeding among working mothers is influenced by institutional workplace support, maternal psychological conditions, knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding, partner perceptions and involvement, as well as technical barriers related to milk expression.Conclusion: There is a pressing need for breastfeeding support for employed mothers, encompassing workplace environment, family involvement, maternal attitudes, and knowledge.
