The implementation of the Occupational Safety and Health Management System (SMK3) is an important effort in creating a safe and healthy work environment and increasing employee productivity.

Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between the implementation of SMK3 and employee performance at PT PLN (Persero) ULP Tomohon. This study uses a quantitative design with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study is all employees of PT PLN (Persero) ULP Tomohon as many as 62 people with a total sampling technique.
