Today, human resources are considered as the most precious assets for any organization and it is important to empower them as much as possible to create competitive advantage and to cope with rapid changes in organizations.In this paper, we present an empirical study on one of food industries in province of Qom, Iran to determine important factors influencing empowering human resources.The proposed study uses factor analysis by choosing a sample of 380 people.Cronbach alpha is calculated as 0.88, which is well above the minimum acceptable limit of 0.7 and validates the overall questionnaire.Based on the results of this survey, there are three important factors including job related, personal related and organizational related issues.The study also uses Pearson correlation as well as Freedman tests to rank the factors and the results demonstrate that organizational factor plays the most important role in empowering human resources followed by job related factors and personal factors.
