In this article you may see below our brief notes, in Q&A
format, on the limits of the management right of the employer which
is one of the most discussed topics of the employment law.
(i) What is the Management Right?
In employment contracts, it is often not possible to fully
regulate how the employment relationship will function with all the
details. The employer's management right refers to the
employer's authority to set unilateral rules on where, how,
when and in what order the performance of work outlined in the
employment contract will be carried out in order to ensure the
orderly functioning of the workplace. Authorizations such as
determining the starting and ending times of the daily working
hours, the time period for annual leaves, the time for taking
breaks, how the work will be distributed in the workplace, the
tools, equipment and techniques to be used fall within the scope of
the employer's management right.
