Abstract :Based on the emphasis regarding the importance of emotional intelligence in literature, in current study it is aimed to investigate the possible effects of employees’ demographic characteristics on their emotional intelligence levels. A quantitative study was designed and required data was obtained from employees working in different sectors. The sample of study is a total 335 employees. According to findings, emotional intelligence was found to be significantly related to gender (r: -.21; p< .01). As expected, females had higher levels of emotional intelligence than males. On the other hand, no significant relationships were found between the income status, age, marital status and education levels of the employees and their emotional intelligence level.Keywords : Emotional Intelligence, , Demographic Characteristics, Employees
