Counterproductive behavior (CB) is defined as intentional behavior against an organization or the partners in an organization. In the literature, it is commonly referred to as organizational deviation, which is a relatively new concept in Turkey. There is yet no study on sports businesses in the literature, which makes the current study very unique. The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between demographics and counterproductive behaviors in sports businesses. The study’s sample includes 150 employees working at a private sports business in the Anatolian Side of İstanbul. The study was designed with a screening model. In the first part of the study, the participants provided demographic information. Next, they completed the Counterproductive Behaviors Scale, which was developed by Bennett and Robinson (2010) and adapted into Turkish by Öztürk (2015). This instrument consisted of 2 sub-dimensions. The reliability studies of the instrument were conducted for the current study. Percentage and frequency tests were used so as to determine the range of the participants’ personal information. Kolmogorov-Smirnov’s normality test was applied to examine whether the data had a normal distribution. Afterward, the test results revealed that non-parametric tests were suitable for analysis (p<0.05). The Mann Whitney U Test was conducted to determine the significant differences for two-factor variables, and Kruskal Wallis was applied for three or more factor variables. A data analysis revealed no statistically significant differences between gender, marital status, employment type (payroll employment, contract labor, part-time employment), seniority, educational status, and counterproductive behaviors and the sub-dimensions of counterproductive behaviors (p>0.05). However, a statistically significant difference was found between counterproductive behavior dimensions and age (X²(2) =10.135; p<0.05). This indicates that participants between the ages of 26-30, especially participants in the younger part of that range, scored higher in the counterproductive behaviors dimension. In addition, a similar statistically significant difference was observed between employment positions and counterproductive behaviors (X²(4)=3.579; p<0.05), so the general services staff was found to score higher than others.
