If a consensus cannot be reached by August 22, the issue will go to the Public Officials Arbitration Committee. The Arbitration Committee will also announce the final figure at the end of the month after completing its work.
MEMUR-SEN IS ON THE SQUARE ON THURSDAY

Regarding the "cadre demand", in which nearly 500 thousand contracted public servants had great hopes, Minister Bilgin pointed out the contract period. However, according to the information obtained, rather than a will to assign a position to contracted personnel, some regulations will be brought to the contracted personnel regarding the salary and the right to appointment.
“WE WAITING FOR OFFER BEFORE THE CABINET MEETING”
Ali Yalçın, Chairman of the Memur-Sen Confederation, "As Memur-Sen, we decided to take action on Thursday at 18:00. We will exercise our democratic rights and do it peacefully. Currently, our organization continues its preparations for action, and we continue the negotiation process in service branches. We had hopes that the government would make a new proposal, but the scheduled cabinet meeting was postponed to Thursday. I hope a proposal is announced before the cabinet," he said.
