In Turkey, because of the extensiveness of natural flexibility the subject of flexibility is discussed much more since quaternary form of employment dominates the market. First of them is formal employment, second one is formal and organized, third one is partially formal employment and the fourth one is informal employment. Unfair competition and exploitation resulted from these four employment forms is still basic problem of our labor market. In the collective bargaining procedures the aims of employer related to flexible working is making the legal framework applicable by collective agreement, elaborating and guaranteeing at the level of collective agreement. On the other hand employees try to arrange collective agreement articles to prevent; limit and apply flexible working under control at the level of collective agreement.Tourism sector is one of the most important sectors in Turkey in terms of employment potential; it makes this sector different in respect of flexibility practices which were present actively in tourism sector even before the 4857 numbered Labor Code in 2003. The new Labor Code restores the legal framework for flexible working and it results the implementation of new flexible working forms and extends them. In the tourism sector collective agreements regulate the flexible working forms mostly such as seasonal workers, work on call and balancing (equalizing) period system CR - Erdoğdu,Seyhan;(1993),Çalışma Hayatında Esneklik,Yaşar Eğitim ve Kültür Vakfı,Kasım, İzmir,ss.319-336 CR - Gerogiannis Elias, Kerckhofs Peter and Vargas Oscar, (2012), Employment and Industrial Relations in the Hotels and Restaurants sector, European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions, pp.1-52 CR - Ludwig, Kurt Vogler,(2005),The New Flexibility of Collective Bargaining, Quarterly review of labour market trends and policies, GERMANY: QUARTERLY REPORT II–2005, ECONOMIX CR - RESEARCH & CONSULTING Munich29 July (in cooperation with Lars Wronn) Schröpfer Stefanie, Heinbach Wolf Dieter,(2007), What a Difference Trade Makes Export Activity and the Flexibility of Collective Bargaining Agreements, September11 CR - Tavmergen (Pırnar) İ.;(1998), “2000 Yılı ve Türk Turizmi”, İzmir Ticaret Borsası Dergisi, 23, CR - Temmuz-Eylül 1998, İzmir, ss.32-36 CR - The Spanish Confederation of Employers’ Organisations , Bargaining increases working time Flexibility, http://www.eurofound.europa.eu/eiro/2003/05/feature/es0305203f.htm(11.07.2013) CR - Tunç A.,Saç F.;(1998), Genel Turizm, Detay Yayınevi, Ankara CR - Turizm Yatırımcıları Derneği,(2008), Türkiye Turizmi İle İlgili Seçilmiş Veriler CR - Tüik,, wwwhttp://www.tuik.gov.tr/PreHaberBultenleri.do?id=10738 (24.09.2012) Türsab, http://www.tursab.org.tr/tr/istatistikler/turist-sayisi-ve-turizm-geliri/aylik-gelirler-1997- _70.html (17.10.2012) CR - Türsab, http://www.tursab.org.tr/tr/istatistikler/turist-sayisi-ve-turizm-geliri/2001 -gelirsayi-ve- ortalama-harcama_68.html(3.05.2013) CR - Yavuz, Arif;(1995), Esnek Çalışma ve Endüstri İlişkilerine Etkisi,Türk Tarih CR - KurumuBasımevi,Ankara Yıldız,Zafer, (2011), Turizmin Sektörünün Gelişimi ve İstihdam Üzerindeki Etkisi, Süleyman CR - Demirel Üniversitesi Vizyoner Dergisi, Cilt 3, Sayı 5, ss.54-71 CR - Yorgun, Sayım,(2013), Turizm Sektörü İstihdam Raporu, Mart, İstanbul CR - Yorgun.
