10. Summary of the findings of the thesis:
The thesis has explored, analyzed, clarified the theoretical basis, and implemented sociological research methods to study the current situation and impact of factors affecting the effectiveness of human resource management at the Laos Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment. Analyzes have shown that human resource management activities at the Laos Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment are currently rated relatively highly by most employees, especially human resource planning, employee performance evaluation, jobs placement. However, the salary and allowance policy is not highly appreciated by employees and does not meet the needs and performance of employees.

Most factors have an impact on the effectiveness of human resource management at the organization. These factors have different effects on departments and employee seniority.
