The 2025-2028 National Employment Strategy (NES) and Action Plan aims not only to provide lasting solutions to labour market challenges but also to develop forward-thinking policies. Developed with broad stakeholder participation and centered around the principles of social dialogue, the National Employment Strategy seeks to enhance Türkiye's competitiveness and elevate social welfare. The strategy is built upon four fundamental policy pillars: improving green and digital transformation and skills alignment in labour markets, promoting inclusive employment, strengthening social protection employment relationship and improving sustainable employment in rural areas, each of which represents a key priority for Türkiye
It calls for the implementation of just transition policies to adapt to green and digital transformation in labour markets to sustain economic growth and improve worker well-being. For instance, in the field of agriculture, efforts will be supported to increase productivity per unit area and ensure a just transition to intensive agriculture, thereby enhancing resource efficiency and increasing rural employment.
