This study examines the influence of PCF towards the relationship between HRMP and employee performance at Libyan international airport. PCF is being neglected in the Libyan setting in general and in the LIA in particular. Therefore, the objective of this research is to recognize the significance of PCF in the advancement of EP and the employment of PCF in the HR department of LIA. Yet, the function of PCF in mediating between HRMP and EP remains unexamined. This research, therefore, focuses on the important role that PCF plays in the successful use of HRMP and the impact that it has on EP. Previous research has indicated that HRMP may be supported by PCF as a supporting tool. This study will adopt the quantitative approach. A survey method contains a cross-sectional design will be adopted as the research strategy to obtain data. The target population will be restricted to employee of the only major Libyan international airports functioning which are Tripoli, Benghazi, and Sabha. More specifically, the employees of all departments at Libyan international airports. The study is expected to have a significant relationship between its variables.
