Abstract: This research aims to explore the impact of ability, motivation, and opportunity (AMO) model to enhance human resource management practices on sustainable competitive advantage. The dimensions of the AMO model were ability-enhancing human resource management practic-es, motivation-enhancing human resource management practices, and opportunity-enhancing human resource management practices. The population consisted of all managers on the top managerial level at insurance companies. The purposive sample was composed of (124) man-agers, where the questionnaires returned, and valid for statistical analysis were (106), with the responding rate (85.5%). Structural equation modeling was used for statistical analysis and testing research's hypotheses. The results indicated that all dimensions of AMO model to en-hance human resource management practices had influenced on sustainable competitive ad-vantage. Hence, the recommendations were oriented to the organizations to improve the recruitment and training practices, as well as encouraging the employees by fair compensations and empowering them to achieve the organization's goals.
