Human resources and knowledge management are considered to be one of the most important factors within
organizations that help them to achieve a competitive advantage. However, organizations should take care of the
human factor and increase their commitment within organizations to take advantage of the knowledge within
them. The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between human resources management
practices and organizational commitment, on the one hand, and their relationship with knowledge management
process, on the other hand.
Consultancy firms operating in Jordan were used as the main sample of this study. A random sample was
selected where 220 questionnaires were distributed to such firms. Only 207 questionnaires were submitted back
with a response rate of 52%. A theoretical model was proposed and tested using structural equation modeling
(SEM). The results of the SEM analysis indicated that human resources practices (recruitment methods, training
and development, performance appraisals, and reward systems) have a significant influence on organizational
commitment (affective commitment, continuance commitment, and normative commitment). Finally, the study
did not find a direct relationship between human resource (HR) practices and knowledge management (KM)
processes (knowledge acquisition, knowledge distribution, knowledge interpretation, and organizational
memory). However, causal links were founded between human resource practices and organizational
commitment, on the one hand, and organizational commitment and knowledge management processes, on the
other hand
