CAN AN EMPLOYEE WHO DOES NOT GET A RISE IN HIS/HER SALARY QUIT HIS/HER JON BY GETTING SENIORITY INDEMNITY?
Any kind of rule related to when and how the salaries will be raised is not clearly determined. In legislative regulations about salaries, it is solely indicated that employees cannot be employed with subminimum rate.

Apart from that, provisions on salaries can be specified in labor agreements. If there are no binding provisions in labor agreements, the initiative related to this provision belongs to the employer.

Even though there is no provision about a rise in salary, an employee who quits his/her job because of salary dispute is regarded that he/she resigns, so that he/she will not have a right to indemnity.
