In this paper, I am classifying
empirical research work from 1974 to 1994
dealing with the relationship between work ethic and religious background. The classification is based on
threee categories. In the first category, 
I am presenting
empirical results which support that there is a significant and positive relationship
between religious background and work-oriented behaviours, and
hence Weberian Protestant ethic is still alive. In the second category, I am
showing the opposite results of the first category. Finally,in the third
category, I am introducing some results which are closely related to the topic.
