Introduction: In view of the increasing attention to the health of the workforce and on the other hand the increase in scientific outputs in the format of scientific and research papers, the aim of this study was to monitor the status of technical articles of Iranian journals in the field of health workforce. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted for a period of ten years (2005-2015) on the specialized field occupational health journals. The data were collected based on content analysis method with researcher-made checklist and using census articles. Results: The extracted data, from 927 articles from five specialized journals in the period of ten years, represented the growing trend in publication of Persian and English articles. Most researches had been respectively conducted in physical and mental health scopes. According to the type of harmful factors, ergonomic factors with 24.27% had the largest portion of articles and researches. Only 11.54% of the reviewed articles were interventional studies. In addition, cohort studies were not found among the articles. Conclusions: The findings of this study which were of the scientometrics type, represented the imbalance in health workforce researches, so that hazardous agents such as ergonomic factors had strong emphasis and some health aspects such as public health were neglected. According to the current situation, setting national priorities in order to balance the distribution of health force researches is necessary.
