Within the scope of the fight against coronavirus, dismissal is prohibited for three months. The President may extend this ban up to six months if he wishes.

If the employer wishes, he can take the worker for free leave, in which case the worker will be paid 39 liras and 24 cents per day. In addition, the same amount will be paid to workers who are laid off after March 15 and cannot receive unemployment benefits.

A new measure will be implemented within the scope of combating the coronavirus outbreak. With the presidential decision, the employer will not be able to employ workers for 3 months. President Erdoğan will be able to increase this period to 6 months if he wishes.
