The Ministry of Labor and Social Insurance is preparing amendments to the law governing collective bargaining for millions of employees and retirees. This law affects the determination of salary increases and pensions.
The move signals the government's intention to reshape the mechanisms for determining public sector wages during a critical economic phase.
Turkey is amending the collective bargaining law for government employees, which will affect the mechanisms for determining salaries and pensions for millions of workers. Employee unions are demanding the addition of the right to strike during negotiations, and the government is seeking to refer the proposal to parliament before the end of the current session.
If the amendments are approved, they could affect how you receive salary increases and retirement pensions in the public sector in the coming years. Granting the right to strike could strengthen the bargaining power of employees, but the final outcome remains pending the drafting of the text before its submission to parliament in a few weeks.
