28 Feb Union Membership
Union membership and gaining membership
Article 17 – (1) those who have reached the age of fifteen and are considered workers in accordance with the provisions of this law may become members of labor unions.
(2) those who are considered employers in the sense of this law may become members of employer unions.
(3) it is free to be a member of the Trade Union. No one can be forced to join or not be a union member. Employees or employers cannot be members of the same business line and also more than one trade union. But workers working in the same work line and at the same time in workplaces belonging to different employers can be members of multiple unions. If workers and employers are members of more than one trade union in violation of this provision, subsequent memberships are invalid.
(4) employees working in auxiliary jobs in the workplace may also be members of a trade union established in the work line in which the workplace enters.
(5) membership in the trade union is gained through the e-Government gate by applying for membership through the e-government gate to the electronic application system to be provided by the Ministry and by the acceptance of the authorized body determined in the trade union charter. If the application for membership is not rejected by the union within thirty days, the request for membership is considered accepted. Those whose applications for membership are not accepted without a justifiable reason can file a claim within thirty days of notification of this decision to them. The court’s decision is final. If the court decides in favor of the plaintiff, membership is considered to have been acquired at the time of the rejection decision.
