Abstract—This study was to develop a Learning Innovation
Model to increase workers’ competencies in working
performance and the quality of life. General data was collected
from four groups of respondents: provincial labor
administrators, factory administrators, workers, and educators.
The quantitative data was analyzed and followed by the
qualitative data analysis through the focus group which
indicated four perspectives in labor management. Those were
the working performance, the life skills, the sufficiency
economics, and the multicultural awareness which were the
essential factors for worker development. A Learning
Innovation Model for increasing workers’ competencies in
industrial factories in three southernmost provinces of Thailand
was proposed based on the hybrid learning.
Index Terms—Learning innovation model, workers,
competencies, three southernmost provinces of Thailand.
