Constitutional Court decision regarding the termination of the employment contract of a private security guard published
Decision of the Constitutional Court Dated 2/7/2026 and Numbered 2021/29752
Laws concerned: Labor Law No. 4857
The Constitutional Court decision published in the Official Gazette addresses an individual application filed by an employee whose employment contract was terminated due to the revocation of their private security identity card. The applicant claimed that their right to the presumption of innocence and the right to a fair trial were violated, stating that the conviction in the criminal proceedings was subsequently changed and a verdict of pronouncement of the judgment being delayed (HAGB) was rendered, enabling them to regain their security card. The majority of the Court found the application inadmissible, evaluating that the conditions for termination had materialized as of the date of termination and that the Regional Court of Appeal decision was not arbitrary.
The dissenting members argued that the substantial changes in the criminal proceedings and the reinstatement of the security card were not duly reasoned and weighed by the appellate courts. This decision does not directly amend Labor Law No. 4857, but constitutes an individual application review within the scope of the evaluation of the results of criminal proceedings and subsequently emerged legal situations by the appellate courts in the termination of employment contracts.
Effective date
2 July 2026
Who is affected
Employers employing private security guards and security personnel.
Application of the worker who missed the permanent staff application deadline due to security card revocation was rejected
Judgment of the Constitutional Court Dated 2/2/2026 and Numbered 2022/75743
Laws concerned: Labor Law No. 4857 · Social Insurance and General Health Insurance Law No. 5510
The Constitutional Court decision published in the Official Gazette concerns the individual application of an employee whose security clearance was revoked and whose employment contract was terminated while working as a private security guard. It was stated that after the terrorism investigation conducted against the applicant resulted in a decision of non-prosecution and their private security certificate was returned, they requested to be transitioned to permanent worker staff.
The relevant administration and appellate courts rejected the request on the grounds that the applicant did not meet the requirement of working as of 4/12/2017, as stipulated in provisional Article 23 added to Decree Law No. 375. The General Assembly of the Constitutional Court examined the claims within the scope of the right to a fair trial and equitable trial and decided that the application was inadmissible due to being manifestly ill-founded.
Who is affected
Employees in the process of transitioning from subcontracted to permanent staff, private security guards, and public institutions.
