Management is an effective and goal-oriented process that guides an organization. This guidance involves five sequential functions: planning, organizing, leading, coordinating, and controlling and evaluating. The fundamental knowledge of management, or the management process, has been present even in ancient civilizations such as those of the Iranians, Egyptians, Sumerians, and others. In Islamic civilization, we have had grand and civilizational management systems. Today, the successful implementation of an HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) management system depends on the participation of all employees. Given that job satisfaction can influence employee performance, this study aims to model the relationship between job satisfaction and the HSE performance of Pars Oil and Gas Company employees. The statistical population of this research consists of all employees of Pars Oil and Gas Company (N = 5300). Using Cochran's formula and simple random sampling, 360 employees were selected as the sample. The data collection tool was a questionnaire, and to ensure its validity, the opinions of several university faculty members were used. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was applied to confirm the reliability, yielding values of 0.79 for job satisfaction and 0.83 for HSE performance. The results indicate a positive and significant relationship between job satisfaction and HSE performance (P-value < 0.01). The regression results show that, in two steps, the indices of job natureand security and safety, which had the highest impact on HSE performance, were included in the analysis.
