This work has studied the competency level of environmental management of the listed companies in the stock exchange of Thailand (SET-MAI) in 7-industry groups by analyzing sampling data from closed-end questionnaires from 101 companies collected in 2017 out of the total 596 companies. The results show that the competency level for overall market was at the high level. The highest score was agro & food industry group, and the lowest score was technology group. The industrial group of the market gained the closest scores to the averages of SET-MAI and might be the representative of the listed companies. From the aspect of organization, it was found that sustainable consumption and production as well as environmental reports were the top priorities. In terms of the environmental management process, the factors with highest scores were environmental management, and corporate environmental values and norms. The factors with lowest scores appeared to be environmental management accounting, and environmental relationship with suppliers.
