The negotiations for public collective labor agreements covering workers in public institutions, including highways, railways, electricity generation plants, ministries, universities, and hospitals, are ongoing.

During the negotiations, which began with the joint wage demand of TÜRK-İŞ and HAK-İŞ representing the workers' side being submitted to the Ministry of Labor and Social Security on February 27, a large portion of the administrative articles had been negotiated. Within the framework of the negotiations, the workers' side had requested to raise the daily minimum wage to 1,800 lira, a 50% increase for the first 6 months of 2025, a 25% increase for the other 6-month periods, and a 10% welfare share on top of that.

THE MEETING WILL BE HOSTED BY TÜHİS

The Turkish Heavy Industry and Service Sector Public Employers' Union (TÜHİS), which is discussing the workers' demands, will meet with the workers' side tomorrow. The parties will hold their first meeting at 14:00 tomorrow at the TÜHİS General Headquarters, representing the employers' side.

THE EMPLOYER SIDE IS EXPECTED TO PRESENT ITS INITIAL OFFER TO THE WORKERS' SIDE

Minister of Labor and Social Security Vedat Işıkhan stated before the AK Party group meeting, "Offers have come from TÜRK-İŞ and HAK-İŞ. We are currently in the evaluation process. Hopefully, we will come together and find common ground."
