Salaries of Turkish civil servants in 2024

In Turkey, working in a public position is considered prestigious, since the incomes of civil servants are quite high and are indexed along with an increase in the minimum wage. Many civil servants have the opportunity to retire earlier (doctors, teachers, police officers) and they will receive a higher pension. In addition, when they retire, they receive a one-time payment, with which they can buy a house or start their own business. In 2024, salaries of state employees will be increased by 49.25%.
