The success of businesses that wants to have a competitive edge around the ever-changing business environment is concerned with the productivity of their employees, who are the most important resources. Satisfaction from work and the work environment will bring the employees gratification. This study was aimed to determine the relationship between job satisfaction and individual performance that was reached out to managers and employees who are in different sectors in the textile industry. Out of 121 questionnaires only 110 were accepted for analysis. In the first part of the three-part questionnaire, the demographic characteristics of the participants were determined, then in the second part, the "Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale" was used to measure job satisfaction perceptions and in the third part, the "Individual Performance Evaluation" scale was used to measure individual performance. The data obtained were obtained through the IBM SPSS statistical program by Anova, frequency, Pearson correlation, reliability, simple linear regression analysis and t test. As a result of the analysis the correlation between job satisfaction perception and individual performance of employees was found to have a positive and significant effect but on a weaker level. It was concluded that age from demographic variables was a factor affecting individual performance but gender and marital status are not a factor affecting performance.
