Employment law

Claims arising when employment ends, and disputes between employees and employers.

Matters handled

  • Severance, notice, overtime, annual leave and other employee claims
  • Reinstatement cases
  • Mandatory mediation meetings
  • Compensation for workplace accidents and occupational disease
  • Cases to establish periods of service
  • Drafting employment contracts and termination procedures for employers

How it generally works

  1. We review your period of employment, pay and how the contract ended, with documents.
  2. We calculate your claims.
  3. We apply for mediation, which is required before a case.
  4. If there is no settlement, we file the case at the labour court.

Useful documents to bring

  • Employment contract and termination notice
  • Payslips and bank salary statements
  • Social security service record (from e-Devlet)
  • Correspondence about overtime and leave

Common questions

What is the deadline for a reinstatement claim?

You must apply to a mediator within one month of being served the termination notice. After that, reinstatement cannot be claimed.

Can I go straight to court?

For employee claims and reinstatement, mediation is a precondition of the case. Workplace accident compensation is an exception.

This page gives general information. Deadlines and conditions depend on the facts and on changes in the law.
