A managing device having a simple structure for an umbilical member or a conduit and a robot having the managing device, by which an interference region of the conduit is reduced as much as possible and the undesirable excess length of the conduit may be cancelled without using an auxiliary device. A first conduit supporting member is arranged on an upper arm of the robot and a second conduit supporting member is arranged on a wrist element of the robot. The conduit is fixed to or twistably supported by the first and second supporting member. Further, the conduit is held by a holding member, mounted between the first and second supporting member, in particular, adjacent to the side of a forearm of the robot, such that the conduit may slide relative to the holding member and may rotate about axes along and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the conduit. As the holding member is positioned as close to the forearm as possible, a gap between the conduit and the forearm is reduced and the possibility of interference between the conduit and an external equipment may be minimized.
