Purpose: Whatever cannot be measured cannot be controlled and whatever cannot be controlled cannot be managed. Therefore, the main issue in all organizational analyzes is performance, and its improvement requires measurement, and therefore an organization without a performance evaluation system is unthinkable. One of the problems of organizations to measure performance is determining performance evaluation indicators. This research has been carried out with the aim of prioritizing employee performance evaluation indicators in the strategic process of human resources management of Alborz province fire department.Methodology: This research is an exploratory research, which was conducted using the Delphi method. The statistical sample of the research is the number of 15 experts and specialists selected from among the employees. The main research criteria, including preparation, implementation and evaluation, were identified from the library method. Data analysis has been done using the approach of network process analysis, DEMATEL and COPRAS.Findings: Based on the results of the research, the implementation criterion with a normalized weight of 0.436 is the first priority among the criteria, the sub-criteria of ethical compliance with a final weight of 0.1276 is the first among the sub-criteria and the implementation of the evaluation system to increase performance. Employees are the first priority among the strategies.Originality/Value: In this study, an attempt has been made to analyze all indicators related to the evaluation of employee performance indicators in the strategic process of human resources, but since there are very few field studies in academic societies, especially domestic ones, in the field of indicators The performance of employees has been done in the strategic process of human resources, so future researchers can improve the designed scale by increasing the range of their studies by identifying and adjusting items and factors

Purpose: : In this study, the technical efficiency and environmental efficiency of irrigated wheat producers in 31 provinces of the country were investigated by considering the emission of CO2 as an undesirable output during the years 1385-1397.
Methodology: Data envelopment analysis and the Malmquist productivity index were used under Natural disposability and Managerial disposability. In the Malmquist index, the amount of wheat production was used as the desired output, and the amount of carbon dioxide emission from the production of irrigated wheat was used as the undesirable output. To determine the amount of CO2 emission, the carbon dioxide emission coefficients related to each production input and the amount of their use in the study area were used.
Findings: The results of the Malmquist productivity index with the absence of border crossing showed that under the natural disposability, Khorasan-Razavi has the highest index value. Kermanshah province has strong efficiency and Fars has weak technical efficiency in irrigated wheat cultivation. Also, the results under Managerial disposability showed that East Azerbaijan has the highest efficiency. Ardabil, Bushehr, Fars, Kermanshah, and Hormozgan with ten years of Malmquist productivity index more than one, East Azerbaijan, West Azerbaijan, Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, North Khorasan, Kurdistan, and Lorestan had a six-year history of Malmquist productivity index less than one. The results of Malmquist's productivity index with the occurrence of border crossing show that under Natural disposability, this index is more than one in all provinces. This is despite the fact that under Managerial disposability it is less than one in all provinces.
Originality/Value: It is recommended to increase farmers' knowledge and awareness of the side effects of irrigated wheat production on the environment through training courses and classes. Considering the climate change, the provinces that have more environmental efficiency in the production of irrigated wheat should be prioritized for cultivation.

One of the topics that has been well discussed in the theoretical foundations of financial economics is the sensitivity of investment costs to cash flow. The degree of reliance of a company on internal resources is determined through the sensitivity of investment to the cash flow of that company. In this regard, the present study examines the moderating role of agency costs on the relationship between CEO characteristics (including CEO optimism, ability, influence, and experience) and investment sensitivity to companies' cash flows. For this purpose, 136 production companies were selected from Tehran Stock Exchange through screening technique during 11 years (1390-1400). This research is a library and analytical-causal study and is based on panel data analysis; Also, factor analysis has been used to index CEO characteristics. The results showed that the CEO's optimism, ability, influence and experience have a significant effect on the sensitivities of companies' investment cash flows. In addition, the results showed that agency costs have a significant effect on the relationship between optimism, experience, ability and influence of the CEO and the sensitivities of cash flows of companies' investments.
