Report OverviewThe Turkish social security
system is largely similar to the Continental
model, with employee contributions made according
to their insurance and payroll status.
Contributions are collected in a joint pool and
pensions are paid, on becoming eligible,
according to contributions made. From 1990, a
number of financial problems arose in the Turkish
social security system due to implementation of
early retirement, an increase in unregistered
employment, and low rates of contributions and
income subject to contributions. The system
does not cover the entire population, and does
not have sufficient protection against poverty.
This unsystematic method limited consistency in
standards with respect to employee rights and
obligations. Social security reform was
introduced in 2008 to address these issues.

Key Highlights The Turkish social security
system is largely similar to the Continental
model, with employee contributions made according

Turkish social security system consists of a set

workers against risks related to death, long-term
disability, short-term sickness, and
unemployment, accidents in the workplace,
occupational diseases and healthcare. Capital
redemption insurance, training and development,
