The Social Security Institution (SGK) has made it easier for unjustly dismissed individuals to receive unemployment benefits. Now, the dismissal code can be changed with a mediation report or a court decision. Thus, it will be easier for unjustly dismissed individuals to receive unemployment benefits, and the reason for your dismissal can be changed in a way that does not hinder your employment.



SGK HAS CHANGED THE APPLICATION



Isa Karakaş's statements are as follows;



"You may be able to receive unemployment benefits and it may have become easier for you to find a job. The Social Security Institution has made changes to the unemployment insurance application. Now, the reason for your dismissal can be changed in a way that does not hinder your employment. Previously, when you were dismissed, especially if you were unjustly dismissed, you could not receive unemployment benefits due to "moral and rule violations" according to Article 25 of the Labor Law. This situation negatively affected your job search process. However, this application has now changed.



DECISION IN FAVOR OF WORKERS



Many workers had applied to the court due to unjust dismissal. Initially, the courts approached this situation with hesitation, but later decisions were made in favor of the workers. After the courts ruled in favor of the workers, SGK decided to change its application regarding the reason for dismissal.



DISMISSAL CODE CAN BE CHANGED



According to this change, if your employer has unjustly dismissed you and you have reached an agreement with the employer through mediation or court to receive severance pay or notice pay, you can submit the mediation report to SGK to have your dismissal code changed. This situation is an important opportunity for employees who could not receive unemployment benefits due to dismissal and faced difficulties in new job applications. Now, the dismissal code can be changed with a mediation report or a court decision. Whether your employer goes or you go, this process can be carried out. No matter how much time has passed, if you receive severance pay or notice pay through a court decision, your dismissal code can be changed to allow you to receive unemployment benefits. This change has become an important step for employees who meet the conditions for unemployment benefits but could not receive them. Best wishes to all employees."
