This research aims to provide a model of sustainable human resources in the Iranian automotive industry using the grounded theory approach. To achieve the research objectives using the non-probability snowball sampling method, the opinions of 15 experts in the field of human resources and senior managers of development units of Iran Khodro and Saipa companies were used to the theoretical saturation stage. The present study has been conducted using an experimental mixed research method. During open coding, approximately 129 items were extracted from the text of interviews as initial concepts. The results showed that economic conditions have the highest priority among the causal states, recruitment and retention of the workforce have the highest priority among the contextual conditions, the government has the highest priority among the interventionist conditions, investment in employee competence for current and future scenarios has the highest priority among strategies, and financial benefits and economic growth have the highest priority among outcomes and consequences.
