Abstract—This study is aimed at understanding the influence of knowledge and human resource management on sustainable development, covering three dimensions: economics, social, and environmental. For the study, questionnaires were used to collect data from the respondents, who were employees of a Thai electricity generating firm, with 393 responses being received through stratified random sampling. Multiple regression analysis was deployed to test the effect of knowledge and human resource management on sustainable development. The results show that knowledge management has an influence on sustainable development at the 0.05 significance level. The findings also revealed that human resource management has a positive impact on sustainable development at the 0.05 significance level. The evidence leads to the recommendation that organizations should enhance their knowledge and human resource management abilities so as foster their sustainable development.
