Employee Rights
Turkish labor law provides strong protections for employees. Key employee rights include:
Severance pay is owed to employees who have worked for at least one year and whose employment is terminated without just cause, or who resign for a valid reason. Notice pay compensates employees when the employer fails to provide the required notice period before termination. Employees are also entitled to overtime pay calculated at 1.5 times the regular hourly rate, annual paid leave based on length of service, and wages that meet or exceed the minimum wage set by the government. Our office meticulously calculates all employee entitlements to ensure full recovery.
Reinstatement Cases
A reinstatement lawsuit (işe iade davası) allows employees who have been unjustly terminated to seek re-employment. To file a reinstatement case, the following requirements must be met:
- The workplace must employ at least 30 workers
- The employee must have worked for at least 6 months
- The employment contract must be indefinite-term
- Termination must lack a valid reason
- The employee must apply to mediation within one month of termination
If mediation fails, the employee may file a lawsuit within two weeks. Attorney Hakan ÖZDEMİR provides strong advocacy in reinstatement proceedings to protect employees from unlawful dismissal.
