With the year 2026, millions of employees will see an increase in their income. While retirees, civil servants, and private sector employees will receive their increased salaries, significant changes will also occur in severance and notice compensation. In the new year, the compensation amounts will rise according to the minimum wage and civil servant salary increases.
INCOME WILL INCREASE IN THE NEW YEAR
With January, retirees and civil servants will receive an inflation difference increase, and social assistance and minimum wage will be redefined. This increase will also directly reflect on the calculations of severance and notice compensation for private sector employees.
HOW IS SEVERANCE PAY CALCULATED?
Severance pay is paid to those who leave their job without their fault, retire, go to military service, or female employees who leave due to marriage, provided they have worked for at least 1 year. The compensation is calculated based on the employee's last gross salary. Only stamp tax is deducted from this amount.
INCREASE IN COMPENSATION IN THE NEW YEAR
As of January 1, 2026, since all employees' salaries will increase, severance pay will also rise.
Currently, the annual severance pay for minimum wage earners is at the level of 26,005 TL (25,808 TL after stamp tax);
- If the minimum wage is increased by 28.5%, this figure will rise to 33,417 TL,
- In a scenario of a 35% increase, it will rise to 35,107 TL.
THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT WILL ALSO CHANGE
The ceiling for severance pay is determined every January and July based on the civil servant salary increase rate. If the ceiling announced as 53,919 TL in July 2025 increases by 20% in the civil servant salary coefficient, it will rise to 64,703 TL in January. This means that high-salaried employees will be able to receive more compensation.
NOTICE COMPENSATION WILL ALSO INCREASE
Notice compensation is also calculated based on the gross salary. The increase in the minimum wage will also affect these payments. For example, if the current gross minimum wage of 26,005 TL rises to 33,417 TL with a 28.5% increase, the 6-week notice compensation will increase from 39,007 TL to 50,125 TL.
CONCLUSION
In the new year, as both salaries and compensations increase, severance and notice compensations, which mean a lump sum payment for employees, will also rise significantly. According to experts, the rate of increase in the minimum wage will be the most critical factor in determining compensations.
