Frequently Asked Questions

Employment Lawyer in Büyükçekmece — FAQ

For an assessment of your specific case, please book an appointment.

The workplace must employ at least 30 workers, the employee must have at least 6 months of seniority, and the employment contract must have been terminated without a valid reason. An application to a mediator must be made within 1 month of the termination notice.

It is calculated at 30 days of the gross 'dressed' wage (including transport, meal allowances, and bonuses) for each full year of service, and is capped at the statutory severance ceiling. Periods exceeding a full year are prorated. No deduction other than stamp duty is made.

As a rule, an employee who resigns cannot claim severance pay; however, entitlement arises in cases of termination for just cause (unpaid wages, unregistered employment, mobbing), military service, marriage (for female employees, within 1 year), and retirement.

It can be proven through workplace records, timesheets, e-mails, phone (HTS) records, and witness testimony. Where no written evidence exists, proof by witnesses is possible, but the court may apply an equitable reduction. Recording a reservation when signing payroll slips is important.
