Purpose - Turkish lawmaker adopted unemployment insurance with Law numbered 4447 in 1999. This study aims to scrutinize the
conditions for benefitting from unemployment insurance, with the focus on the unemployment insurance payment. By studying on this, we
want to bring some clarity to the practitioners.
Methodology – The conditions for benefiting from unemployment insurance payment will be examined in the light of Court of Cassation’s
judgment and practice of Turkish Employment Agency in a comparative law approach. With this regard, we will refer to German Law which
has a solid system of unemployment insurance.
Findings – Unemployment benefit is granted only to unemployed insured whose employment contract is terminated on certain grounds
and who has sufficient premiums. The requirements to be met for benefiting unemployment insurance are harsh, therefore they exclude
majority of the unemployed persons.
Conclusion- Although the scope of unemployment insurance has been extended recently, unemployment insurance alone is not sufficient
to combat unemployment.
