Based on the results of statistical analyzes and t-statistic values; 6.58, 9.12 and 7.47, respectively, the direct effect of emotional labor on the customer satisfaction and perception of the quality of service, as well as the direct effect of the perception of the quality of service by the customer satisfaction were confirmed. Investigating the impact of emotional labor on the customer satisfaction, with a path coefficient of 0.52, showed that the variable of emotional labor directly explains 52% of the changes in the satisfaction variable. Two path coefficients between emotional labor and perception of service quality 0.69 and perception of service quality with customer satisfaction 0.74 also showed that the variable of emotional labor indirectly and through the mediating variable of perception of service quality has a 51% effect on the customer satisfaction. The direct and significant effect of emotional labor on the perception of service quality and customer satisfaction was confirmed in the main hypothesis. Investigating and determining the intensity of the indirect effect using the VAF statistic, the value of 49.6% showed that almost half of the total effect of emotional labor on customer satisfaction is indirectly explained by the mediating variable of service quality perception.
