The statistical population of this study includes all listed firms on the Tehran Stock Exchange during 2018-2023.The results show a positive and significant relationship between employee support and the occurrence of financial restatements. Further, the results confirm a positive relationship between the ability of managers and financial restatement. By the way, a negative relationship between the existence of an internal control weakness in financial reporting and the financial restatement obtained.
