The last four years has seen a blossoming of research on the role of spirituality and religion on individual's careers. The research does not differentiate between belief systems but rather focusses on whether people have a spiritual or religious framework.

Ryan Duffy and David Blustein conducted a study on the relationship between religiousness, spirituality, and career decision self-efficacy. They found that spiritual/religious frameworks play a significant role in an individual's confidence about making career decisions. Here's an extract from their findings:
"While the exact link between these variables and confidence in making career decisions is not clear, we propose that the stability and support granted by a strong base in religion and spirituality helps an individual have confidence about a host of decisions, including those concerning ones career."
