This called for finding a future vision, policies, plans and strategies to protect the environment.                                                                                                                      

 In this context, Iraq tried to devote the importance of integrating the environmental dimension with the economic and social dimension by adopting the environmental planning method that focuses in its general sense on preserving the environment and on the biological balance in order to achieve human well-being, which is the goal and purpose of development.

Treatments of war remnants in an analytical manner within the general framework of economic plans, and one of the most important results that were reached despite the development of economic plans in the field of environment are policies and strategies that work to protect the environment, but from a practical point of view it was difficult to materialize the goals and achieve the goals under the circumstances that Iraq passed.

Abstract

This study aims to highlight the role of green management in achieving and promoting environmental and corporate sustainable development by proposing new mechanisms for its implementation to support sustainability at various levels. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach using a questionnaire distributed to a sample of 274 employees at the Najaf Refinery, and examined the causal relationships among the study variables, with data analyzed using SPSS. The results showed that sustainable development can be achieved through environmental planning and design, waste management, and environmental training and awareness. They also revealed that green management serves as an effective tool to enhance sustainable development in the oil industry by reducing harmful environmental impacts and improving resource use efficiency, thus contributing to tangible economic and social benefits. This study underscores the importance of green management in supporting sustainable development in the oil industry and proposes mechanisms to strengthen its application and achieve sustainability on a broader scale, in line with efforts to meet organizational needs and improve environmental and organizational efficiency.
