The aim of the study is to understand the influences of the management systems of Health, safety, and Environment on employee performance in the Khurmor Liquefied Petroleum Gas Field. The main problem of the study is the unique and regional challenges faced by personnel in the Khurmor gas field, which may affect the operation and efficiency of HSE systems. The Descriptive analytical method has been used to analyze the data and describe the variables and dimensions in the study. The study was conducted on Crescent Petroleum, which is currently in the process of extracting and producing liquefied petroleum gas. Questionnaire form has been used as the data collection tool. The study population includes employees in Crescent Petroleum company, the number of employees was (63) employees, these employees answered the questions, but the total number of forms distributed is (87) forms. Simultaneously and realistically, Statistical tools were applied IBM SPSS Amos 26 and excel.
As a result of the data analysis in the study, several results were obtained by describing and identifying both variables, the most important of which was the existence of a direct and significant relationship between the dimensions of the management systems of health, safety and environment and employee performance. The variable dimensions of health, safety and environmental management systems also have been a positive effect on employee performance in the study framework company. At the end of the study, several recommendations are suggested for other research in future. The most important recommendation is that attention should be paid to the implementation of the study variables in all companies in the Kurdistan Region to solve some of the management problems. The originality of this study stems from the fact that it is the first time that these two variables have been combined together, being used in a study on Crescent Petroleum in the petroleum management in the Kurdistan of Iraq.
