Position Classification in the Turkish Public Service: Practices and Problems

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study has two interrelated objectives. The first objective is to present an overview about how job classification/norm cadre studies have been developed on a legal basis and in practice, in the Turkish Public Administration. The second is, along with this overview, to examine the problems arising with the norm cadre practices in Turkey, by surveying whether they are compatible with the original job classification practices. The study first touches upon the history of norm cadre studies that have been on the agenda for nearly half a century. Then norm cadre practices and problems related to these in the Ministry of National Education, Ministry of Health, municipalities and universities were analyzed. As a result of the research, it is concluded that the job classification practice is differentiated and misapplied in Turkey, where the main aim is to limit the number of personnel classified after standardization.
