Hospital services bring about wastes, part of which is infectious and dangerous, thus incorrectly managing it can trigger irrecoverable dangers for the society. Employee training and provision of information in the framework of knowledge management process are necessary for successfully eliminating the wastes. Organizational knowledge is complex; as a result, managing it today is important and difficult. Systems approach can somehow help us control these complexities. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of knowledge management on hospital waste management through a dynamic approach and interactive factors. This research consists of three feedback loops. That is, as the hospital waste increase, so does the cost of its elimination, and also, there is more pressure on authorities to apply knowledge and transfer this knowledge to the employees. Transferring knowledge and subsequently getting feedback on the scientific waste disposal will lead to the enhancement and stability of applied knowledge of the personnel in this respect. As a result, increasing employee motivation and in-service training affects their applied knowledge and provides a more stable trend.
