This article aims to study (1) to examine the levels of goal setting, perceived organizational support, and employee performance, and (2) To investigate the influence of goal setting and perceived organizational support on employee performance. The sample consisted of 291 employees working in the 304 Industrial Park, Prachinburi Province, selected through convenience sampling and stratified random sampling based on proportional allocation. The research instrument was a questionnaire comprising five sections: general information, goal setting, perceived organizational support, employee performance, and additional suggestions. Data analysis employed descriptive statistics (percentage, frequency, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson’s correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis). The research results were found as follows:

  1. Employees reported high levels of goal setting (Mean = 3.914), perceived organizational support (Mean = 3.762), and performance (Mean = 3.902).
  2. Goal setting had a positive influence on employee performance (Adjusted R² = 38.6%, p < 0.05), with clarity, commitment, feedback, and task complexity as significant factors.

Perceived organizational support had a positive influence on employee performance (Adjusted R² = 58.4%, p < 0.05), with knowledge and promotion opportunity, job security, emotional psychology, and working conditions as significant factors.
