The purpose of this research was to analyze the level of employee work motivation based on their demographic variables in Amhara National Regional State Bureaus. Correlational and descriptive survey design were applied. Quantitative data was collected from 373 sample respondents through the application of stratified and simple random sampling techniques but out of these, five questionnaires were not valid and the analysis was made for 368 respondents. Reliability and validity of the measurements were checked through the use of factor analysis and pilot test. Independent sample t-test, Welch’s statistics in one-way ANOVA and multiple linear regression analysis were applied. The researcher found that the overall role of demographic variables (gender, marital status, educational level, work experience and age) on employee motivation was statistically significant. Separately, from the t-test result, it was revealed that gender and marital status; and from the ANOVA analysis, work experience and age of employees have significant role on employee motivation while educational level has no significant role on employee motivation. The strength of the association was also determined by Omega square estimation. On the other hand, from the multiple regression analysis, work experience and age have positive and significant effect on employee motivation whereas educational level was not significant predictor of employee motivation. Thus, the researcher concluded that the employees’ demographic variables (gender, marital status, work experience and age) have played their own role on the level of employee motivation in Amhara National Regional State Bureaus.
