The aim of this study was to present the Human resource development model in the area of social welfare with a future research approach.

The statistical population of the study included ۲۷۵ experts and managers of the General Directorate of Cooperatives, Labor and Social Welfare (GDCLS) of Sistan and Baluchestan Province. The sample size according to Cochran's formula was calculated at ۱۶۰ people with a quantitative stratified sampling method. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire consisting of ۹۶ questions scored on a ۵-point Likert scale. Confirmatory factor analysis in AMOS-۱۸ software was used to analyze the data. Results: Factor loadings of the human resource development measurement model (path coefficients) consisted of communication skills (۰.۸۲), job knowledge and competences (۰.۸۱), decision skills (۰.۸۰), socio-cultural variable and technological factor (۰.۸۰), behavioral factors (۰.۷۷), organizational knowledge (۰.۷۰), intellectual factors (۰.۶۶) and creativity factor (۰.۶۹) had an impact on human resource development according to the future research approach. Based on the paired t-test, there was a significant difference between the current and desired statuses of human resource development components with the futures research approach (p-value< ۰.۰۰۱). Conclusion: Organizations should direct organizational capitals towards support human resource development. To be successful in the future, public organizations need to study issues related to the future.
