ABSTRACT: Employee performance in the banking sector is critical for organizational competitiveness and service
excellence. Emotional Intelligence (EI) has been identified as a key driver of workplace effectiveness,
yet its impact may depend on the presence of Psychological Safety (PS). This study investigates the
direct effect of EI on employee performance and the mediating role of PS among employees of
commercial banks in Jos, Nigeria. Adopting a quantitative, cross-sectional survey design, data were
collected from 450 employees across five major banks using structured questionnaires. PLS-SEM via
SEMinR was employed for data analysis. Findings are expected to demonstrate that EI positively
influences employee performance and that PS partially mediates this relationship, highlighting the
importance of fostering emotionally intelligent behaviours and psychologically safe environments in
banking institutions. The study provides theoretical and managerial implications for enhancing
employee engagement, collaboration, and productivity in high-pressure service environments.
