This research aimed to predict marital satisfaction based on love-related attitudes among on-off basis work employees of East Oil and Gas Exploitation Company. This study’s statistical population included all married male Khangiran Sarakhs Oil Company employees and their wives. The convenience sampling method was used to select a sample size of 140 people (85 men and 55 women). According to its purposes and hypotheses, the current study was applied and was of a correlation type. This study used two questionnaires to collect information evaluating the research objectives: Afrooz spouse satisfaction (short form) and love-related attitudes questionnaire (LAS). The research data were analyzed by stepwise regression. The findings of this study revealed that marital satisfaction was predictable based on love-related attitudes Eros (0/53), Pragma (0/08), Ludus (0/02), and Storge (0/18) at the level p<0/01 on an on-off basis work employee of East Oil and Gas Exploitation Company. The results also showed that the Mania and Agape types did not predict marital satisfaction. Based on these findings, it was concluded that love-related attitudes were a variable influencing marital satisfaction of on-off basis work employees and their spouses and a predictor of marital satisfaction of the current research sample. Finally, It is suggested to compare and examine marital satisfaction based on love-related attitudes in on-off basis and non-on-off basis work employees in future research
