Abstract


Emotional intelligence and job satisfaction are two very important concepts in business life. These two variables have been shown to be linked to the productivity of each employee individually but also to the results of businesses internationally. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors that influence emotional intelligence in the workplace and the professional satisfaction of employees, as well as their correlation with other important parameters, such as the special characteristics of each employee. The survey was carried out with the help of a structured questionnaire that was distributed electronically to a random sample and for a period of one month. The results of the research showed that there is a strong positive correlation between the two factors, emotional intelligence and job satisfaction. It also showed that there is a correlation, even if low, between each of these two factors with various variables, such as education and educational level, age and level of hierarchy within the company, but also the obligations they have in the personal their life.
