The study aimed to determine the influence of social responsibility in human resource management on sustainable job performance in the district municipalities of Tacna during the period 2023–2024. A basic quantitative approach was applied, with a non-experimental design and explanatory level. The census sample consisted of 184 public servants, who were given a validated questionnaire with high internal consistency. The results showed that social responsibility reached predominantly average levels (69,6%), while sustainable work performance also ranked as average (62,0%). Likewise, the ordinal logistic regression model showed a significant fit (x2 = 109,265; p < ,001) and a Nagelkerke's pseudo-R² equal to 0,558, indicating that social responsibility explains 55,8% of the variability in sustainable performance, which is a positive relationship (r = 0,649; p < 0,001). These results confirm the relevance of institutional practices based on transparency, ethics, legality, and attention to stakeholders as key mechanisms for strengthening performance and labor sustainability in the municipal public sector.
