Türkiye plans child care, flexible work to boost labor participation

Turkey has announced plans to implement new measures aimed at increasing labor participation, including expanding institutional childcare services, adjusting working hours, and promoting flexible work arrangements. These initiatives are part of the country's 2027-2029 Medium-Term Program (MTP), which seeks to address barriers to employment such as skill gaps, caregiving responsibilities, and regional labor imbalances. The program emphasizes collaboration between the public and private sectors, with a focus on supporting individuals outside the labor market to transition into sustainable employment. It also includes educational reforms to highlight the value of work from an early age and introduces career counseling and skills development programs. Additional measures include revising parental leave policies, developing workplace childcare services, encouraging remote work options for parents, and creating flexible employment models to enhance work-life balance.
