Differences Between Employer’s Right Of Termination On Just Grounds And Right Of Termination On Valid Grounds

1-IN GENERAL

Employer's right of immediate termination on just grounds is regulated under Article 25 of the Labour Code numbered 4857. The grounds giving rise to Employer's right of immediate termination are set forth under various headings under the referred provision. These are gathered under four main headings which are (i) reasons of health, (ii) cases contrary to morals and good faith and similar behaviour, (iii) compelling reasons and (iv) the absence of the employee exceeding a certain period as a result of his detention or arrest.

Whether the employment contract executed with the employee is of definite or indefinite duration does not have any significance in the exercise by the employer of its right of immediate termination on just grounds.
