Hi,

"I have been working" means I started to work some time ago and continued to work up until now. It is in the present perfect progressive tense.

Example sentence: I have been working for three hours.

Or in other words: I started to work three hours ago and worked up until now.

"I have worked" means I already completed working. It is in the present perfect tense.

Example sentence: I have worked in the zoo.

Or in other words: At some time in the past I worked in the zoo, so now I have some experience of working with animals.
