The research aims to examine the impact and correlation between the independent variable occupational safety and the dependent variable sustainable performance as well as the mediating variable a green environment. The effective implementation of occupational safety systems can lead to a significant reduction in accident rates and worker injuries, which undoubtedly has a direct impact on their productivity and the quality of the product. The research seeks to answer the question: "The role of occupational safety practices in achieving sustainable performance: with the mediation of achieving a green environment."

The research adopted the descriptive-analytical approach as its methodology, using a questionnaire model that was randomly distributed to senior and middle management employees. The questionnaire covered the three main dimensions of the study: occupational safety, sustainable performance, and green environment. Several statistical methods were used, including means, standard deviations, confirmatory factor analysis, impact testing, and other statistical techniques.

The most important conclusion reached by the research is the existence of a statistically significant correlation and impact of occupational safety practices on sustainable performance, mediated by the role of the green environment.
