*Further Information*
*This study explored the effects of nurse managers' sustainable management behaviors (SMB) and nurses' sociodemographic and professional characteristics on nurses' job performance (JP). We conducted this study in March and April 2024, using an online questionnaire. We completed the study with the participation of 283 nurses. The data collection form comprised three parts: an information form about nurses' sociodemographic and professional characteristics, the sustainable management behaviors scale (SMBS), and the job performance scale (JPS). We used descriptive, correlational, and hierarchical regression analyses to analyze the data. The mean scores of the SMBS and JPS were high. The study found that nurses' JP was highest in coordination of care and lowest in compliance. SMB was highest in corporate functioning and lowest in environmental sensitivity. A positive correlation was found between JP and SMB. Hierarchical regression analysis identified SMB of nurse managers as a significant predictor of nurses' JP. Specifically, corporate functioning and protection sensitivity behaviors were the most influential dimensions, even after controlling for demographic and occupational variables. The findings emphasize the significant role of nurse managers' SMB in enhancing nurses' JP.
