Handlebars does not support equality check in if blocks. You need register your own helper:

handlebars.registerHelper('ifvalue', function (conditional, options) {
  if (options.hash.value === conditional) {
    return options.fn(this)
  } else {
    return options.inverse(this);
  }
});

And use it:

{{#ifvalue emps.marital_status value="married"}}
    married
{{else}}
    unmarried
{{/ifvalue}}
