Summary/Abstract: Objectives. Manufacturing firms in the Czech Republic today address the increasing staff turnover and the issue of employee satisfaction is very topical. The aim of this study was to find out whether the job satisfaction of manufacturing company employees is influenced by their existential attitudes and personality in the context of Eysenck's dimensions. Method. The research was carried out in four production plants in the Czech Republic during 2018. Questionnaires DUSIN, EPQ-R and ESK were used. Results. It has been found that neuroticism and psychoticism negatively correlate with most areas of job satisfaction. Positive correlations were found between job satisfaction and the emotional component of existential attitudes, the ability to make choices, acceptance of responsibility and basic existential moments. Conclusions. Existential attitudes and moments and Eysenck's personality dimensions of employees most often enter into satisfaction with job opportunities, satisfaction with the job description and satisfaction in the working team, they less affect work evaluation and satisfaction in relationships with superiors. Limits. The limits of research are mainly that employees of manufacturing companies are treated as a homogeneous group and variables from anamnestic data that would give a more plastic image are not taken into account.The results can be influenced by the fact that the questionnaire filling was very demanding for the respondents. The key question is also whether it is possible to quantify the spiritual qualities of the personality without losing the very essence of existential abilities.
