The data collected by questionnaire technique were analysed by statistical techniques, such as frequency and percentage distribution, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, Pearson’s correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis, independent samples t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. What is more, a factor analysis was administered for validity and reliability, and Cronbach’s Alpha coefficients were calculated. Obtained data suggested that the psychological capital levels of employees were positive above the medium level. The general emotional labor performance of employees was at the medium level. Thejob performance levels perceived by employees were high. As a result of the correlation analysis performed in the study, positive correlations were identified between psychological capital and emotional labor at r=0.529, psychological capital and job performance at r=0.717, and emotional labor and job performance at r=0.595.
