The two most commonly used grounds for termination of employee are the Authorized Causes under Article 283 and 284 of the Labor Code, and the Just Causes under Article 282. Below are the authorized causes for termination of employment.
As maybe broadly defined, authorized causes for dismissal of employee refer to those lawful grounds for termination which in general do not arise from fault or negligence of the employee. “Authorized causes” are distinguished from “just causes” under Article 282 in that the latter are always based on acts attributable to the employee’s own fault or negligence.

Impacts of Mediation Procedure on Turkish Employment LawMelis Buhan Öncel
Turkish legal system has been changed with the new provisions introduced by the Law on Mediation in Civil Disputes (Law No:6325) (the “Mediation Law”) and the Regulation Regarding Law on Mediation in Civil Disputes (the “Mediation Regulation”). The concept of mediation, which has been adopted as an alternative dispute resolution method in Turkey, is regulated as mandatory and optional. The reason for the enactment of the Mediation Law is an inevitable result of the Turkish Courts’ overwhelming caseload.
This new concept of mediation in Turkey also affected the Turkish Labour Code (Law No: 4857) (the “Labour Code”) and with the enactment of Law on Labor Courts (Law No: 7036) on 2017, there have been many amendments in the Turkish Labour Code to ensure the compliance with this new concept. The mediation process has become a mandatory step to be taken by the employees before initiating a lawsuit.
The Law numbered 6698 on Protection of Personal Data (“Law”) has been published recently which introduced new requirements and obligations in terms of data protection.
Following the enforcement of the Law, the companies in Turkey are required to render their internal regulations, policies and contracts to comply with the Law. In this Article, the procedures to be followed by companies from the point of view of employment and contractual law will be described.

This publication has been prepared in order to provide brief information regarding residence and work permits in Turkey. For further information, please contact:
Mail: info@dablawfirm.com, Web Site: www.dablawfirm.com.
Please be informed that currently there is no specific regulation regarding the protection of personal data in Turkey and protection of personal data is regulated under various legislation. However, the Draft Code on the Protection of Personal Data (the "Draft Code") is recently approved by the Prime Minister of Turkey to be submitted to the Parliament on January 18, 2016. As part of the European Union compliance procedure, the Draft Code is prepared by way of modelling European Union's Directive numbered 95/46 ("Directive No. 95/46") and published in 1995.Due to the fact that data protection is regulated under various laws and regulations, there is not any specific definition for “Personal Data” under our current legislation.
This publication is prepared to provide general information for expats residing and working in Turkey.
Due to the frequency of foreign investments made and the number of multinational companies based in Turkey, especially within the recent years the number of expats increased rapidly. On the basis of the current situation in Turkey, it is no surprise to expect that Turkey will continue to attract expats.
As per our experiences with our expat clients, we noted that they do not hold a strong position against companies to negotiate their terms of employment and the content of their employment contracts, they have difficulties understanding the nature of their rights.
As DAB Law Firm we have observed that expats and even their employers get lost between the procedures to be followed during the residence and work permit applications. In this regard, this note is prepared to provide guidance to foreigners working in Turkey or wishing to work and reside in Turkey.

3. Please be informed that the Labour Code numbered 4857
(“Labour Code”) regulates the working conditions and also rights
and obligations of the employees and employers. The Labour Code
shall apply to all employers, employer representatives, employees
and workplaces except those listed under Article 4 of the Labour
Code.
Further to Article 4 of the Labour Code, certain activities such as
sea and air transport activities and employment relationships such
as apprentices and sportsmen are excluded whilst all activities
related to aviation ground facilities or loading and unloading
operations to and from ships at ports and landing stages are
included.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 3
4. An employment contract is a contract that one party (the
employee) undertakes to perform a work and the other party (the
employer) undertakes to pay salary for such services.
Employment contracts with a period of one year or over shall be
made in writing. These documents are exempt from stamp tax and
all kinds of charges.
In the case that a written contract is not executed between the
parties, the employer shall provide a document to the employee
within two months at the latest, indicating the general and specific
working conditions, daily or weekly working hours, the salary and
additional payments (if any), payment periods and the provisions
to be complied in case of a termination. This provision shall not
apply for definite term employment contracts with a period less
than a month.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 4
5. Please note that as per Article 109 of the Labour Code, all of the
notifications stipulated under the Labour Code shall be made in
writing and against a signature.
In the event that the person in question refuses to sign the
notification, a statement evidencing such situation shall be taken
down. In practice, during the preparation of such statement the
relevant steps should be followed very carefully.
There are two types of termination of the employment contract
stipulated under the Labour Code; 1) Termination with notice
period and 2) Immediate Termination due to justified reasons.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 5
6. Please note that termination with notice period is a type of a
termination where the employer or employee serves a notification
to the other party and the termination takes effect after expiration
of a certain period to be determined as per the Labour Code.
The notice periods stipulated under the Labour Code constitutes
the minimum and such periods may only be increased in favour of
the employees. In other words, if the notice periods are increased
by an employment contract or collective bargaining agreement, the
employer will be obliged to comply with such increased notice
periods whilst the employee will still be bound by the notice
periods stated under the Labour Code.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 6
7. The employer who does not wish to employ the employee during
the notice period may terminate the agreement without adhering to
the notice periods provided that the employer pays the amount
equal to the salary that the employee would receive for the
applicable notice period.
As an additional note, during the notice periods, the employer is
obliged to grant a leave period to the employee within the working
hours in order for such employee to seek a new job and shall not
deduct any amount from his/her salary. Such leave period shall not
be less than two hours in a day and the employee may use this type
of leave at once under certain circumstances.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 7
8. Please be informed that job security provisions are regulated under
the Labour Code. As per Article 18 of the Labour Code in work
places where 30 or more employees are employed, the employer
shall provide a valid reason for termination of an indefinite term
employment contract of an employee with at least six months of
seniority. Moreover, in case of a termination by an employee, the
employee in question shall not be protected by job security
provisions.
Kindly note that valid reasons are not listed under the Labour
Code, however reasons which shall not be deemed valid for
termination are clearly stated under Article 18.
In practice, it is very important to evaluate the “valid reason” by
considering the specific conditions of each case. As explained
below, post termination issues are strictly related to the “valid
reason”.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 8
9. The employer’s representatives who manages the entire enterprise
and their assistants and also the employer’s representatives who
conduct and manage the entire workplace and who are authorized
to employ or dismiss the employees are not protected by the job
security provisions.
With respect to the immediate termination due to justified reasons,
in the case that certain material reasons make the continuation of
the employment relationship difficult, the employer or the
employee may terminate the employment contract without
complying with the notice periods or before the expiration date of a
contract.
Kindly note that Article 24 of the Labour Code stipulates the
justified reasons for termination by the employee and Article 25 of
the Labour Code stipulates the justified reasons for termination by
the employer.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 9
10. The general titles of the justified reasons stipulated under Article
24 and 25 of the Labour Code are reasons such as health reasons,
events contrary to ethical rules and to good faith and others,
compelling events etc.
As a separate note, an indefinite term employment contract of an
employee may not be terminated due to the behaviour or
productivity of an employee without obtaining the written defence
of the employee in question.
Further to Article 19 of the Labour Code, the employer shall
terminate the employment contract in writing and shall clearly state
the reason of termination therein.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 10
11. The employee, whose employment contract is terminated, may file
a lawsuit on the grounds that the reason for termination is not
indicated in the termination letter or invalidity of the reasoning
stated therein. The employee in question shall file such a lawsuit
within one month as of the receipt of the termination notification.
In the case that the employee is protected by job security
provisions and employer fails to provide valid and/or justified
reason for the termination or the court decides the invalidity of the
reasons stated in the termination notification, the employer shall
re-employ (reinstate) the employee within the period of one month.
Moreover, the employee shall make application to the employer
within 10 business days as of the finalized court or arbitrator
decision, otherwise the termination by the employer shall be
deemed valid and consequences of termination due to the valid
grounds shall apply.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 11
12. In the event that the employer does not re-employ the employee
within such period, the employer shall be liable to pay a special
compensation regulated under the Labour Code in addition to the
termination related payments.
In the case that the employee is not protected by job security
provisions, the employer is not under obligation to state a valid
reason during the termination of the employment contract.
However, if the termination of the employment contract constitutes
an abuse of the termination right, then the employer will be obliged
to pay a compensation in the amount of three times the salary to be
paid during the notice periods.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 12
13. With respect to the release letters, kindly note that once the
employment contract is terminated, the employer shall obtain a
document indicating that the employee has received all of his/her
rights. According to Article 420 of the Turkish Code of
Obligations, a release letter shall be obtained from the employee
one month after the termination date.
Furthermore, the employer shall provide a document to the
employee whose employment contract is terminated. Such
document shall indicate the type of the work performed by the
employee and the duration of the employment.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 13
14. Additionally, Article 5 of the Labour Code titled “Principle of
Equal Treatment” prohibits any kind of discrimination during the
employment relationship. If the employer violates such principle
during the term or termination of the employment contract, then
the employee may claim a compensation.
As a separate note, Article 23 of the Labour Code regulates the
responsibility of the new employer. In the case that the employee
terminates his/her employment contracts without complying period
or before the expiration date, the new employer shall also be
responsible in certain cases.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 14
15. Article 29 of the Labour Code stipulates the conditions and
procedures to be followed in case of a collective dismissal. Please
be informed that a collective dismissal occurs where
• At least 10 employees are dismissed in a work place with the
employees between 20 and 100 employees,
• 10% of the employees are dismissed in a work place e with the
employees between 101 and 300
• at least 30 employees are dismissed in a workplace with the
employees 301 or more.
The dismissal shall be made in accordance with article 17 of the
Labour Code; on the same date or different dates within the period
of one month in order to be considered as collective dismissal.
Dirik Akoglu Buhan Law Firm 15
16. Kindly note that compensation payments and termination related
payments vary by each specific case. However, notice pay,
severance pay and unused annual leave pay are some of the
termination related payments to be made to the employees whose
employment contracts are terminated by the employer. Termination
related payments may differ as per the conditions of each specific
case, therefore the circumstances should be evaluated carefully.
Furthermore, during termination of an employment, the parties
may execute a mutual termination agreement. The procedures to be
followed for mutual termination are specified by the Court of
Appeal decisions.
Lastly, there are administrative fines regulated for certain
violations of the Labour Code provisions.
