Employee Rights After Quitting Job: What You Need to Know

Labor Law is one of the important branches of law that touches the lives of almost every citizen somewhere. Whether or not employees realize that they are under the protection of Labor Law, they benefit from the protection of the law, or if they know their rights at points where they do not benefit, they have the opportunity to benefit from them.

          It should be underlined that we have a Labor Law that regulates the rights and responsibilities of both the employee and the employer. Therefore, not only the articles that protect employees and are regulated in their favor, but also the relationship between employers and the state, labor unions, workers’ wages, etc. are included in the Labor Law.

            Lawyers, who are defined by people as labor lawyers  who are usually one of the biggest supporters of the person in this process after being dismissed, graduate from law school like any other lawyer. Only because their field of interest and work is labor law, they have more clients and cases in this field. Therefore, they have more knowledge and experience. In addition, they do not have the title of labor lawyer or employment lawyer

        However, this is a colloquial term, just as lawyers working in the field of criminal investigations and prosecutions are called criminal lawyers. In this section, we will inform you by using this conventional title. (labor lawyer or employment lawyer).

What Should I Do After I Quit My Job?

        If you leave your workplace voluntarily, by resigning, by being fired, or after the workplace is closed or all other similar situations differ in terms of Labor Law. Therefore, the most important thing you need to know before getting professional help from a Labor Lawyer is to convey the events correctly.

           If you give the power of attorney to a labor lawyer or a labor lawyer, he/she will take the best and most useful step that can be taken for you. In order to proceed on the right path, it is necessary to take the first step correctly. So the first information is very important.

         Sometimes workers apply to a labor law attorney after filing a labor claim. Of course, it is possible to consult a labor lawyer at every step of the process. However, as the case progresses, what your lawyer can do for you will be much more limited than if he or she had followed the file at the beginning.

        Long story short, what you should do after finishing the job is very simple, contact your lawyer as soon as possible in order to learn all your rights regarding material or moral compensation or workers’ claims or to prevent the loss of your existing rights after you are dismissed or dismissed.

How to File a Workers’ Compensation Lawsuit?

        If you want to file a lawsuit for workers’ claims without any professional help, i.e. without a labor lawyer or employment law attorney, the procedure you will follow is important. Because worker’s claim lawsuits are one of the types of civil lawsuits, procedural procedures are important. The facts will not be investigated by the court ex officio, but the case will proceed on the claims, defense and evidence related to them. Even if you do not know the procedural procedures, which are very important in civil cases, you may lose the case you are right.

       When filing an employee receivable lawsuit;

  •   You must first apply to the arbitration institution. Arbitration offices are located inside the courthouses.
  •  Subsequently, you can make a compromise by meeting with the employer or his/her representative in the arbitration meeting.
  •   If the reconciliation does not take place, you need to file a lawsuit after this point.
  •   When filing a lawsuit, do not forget to submit the evidence list and witnesses at the same time, otherwise you may have difficulty in proving even the points you are right about.

         This is generally the procedure you should follow when filing a lawsuit for workers’ receivables. However, there may be small details other than the general conditions that you should pay attention to, so it is useful to get professional help before the case. 

          Unfortunately, nowadays, people who meet their friends and file a labor claim lawsuit or print a petition about the labor claim lawsuit cannot receive the full amount of compensation that should be received. Therefore, working with a labor law lawyer or a labor lawyer will make a great contribution to you in terms of deserving and collecting all your receivables you are entitled to.

What are the Conditions for the Validity of a Release from the Employee? 

      You may have signed a release against your receivables when you left your job. After some time has passed, if you realize that you have not received your receivables from the workplace in full, you should know the Validity Conditions of the Release from the Employee. 

      If the release is not valid, then you will be able to sue for your receivables. Although the absence of these conditions does not necessarily mean that the release will be invalid, you can evaluate the existence of these conditions in terms of validity before contacting a lawyer.

       In order for the release received from the employee to be valid;

  •  First of all, the release agreement must be in writing.
  •  There must be at least one month between the date of signing the release and the date of termination.
  •  The exact amount and subject of the receivable subject to the release must be written precisely.
  •  The payment made to the worker must be made through a bank.

What are the Types of Labor Lawsuits?

         There are many types of labor lawsuits. Some of them are filed by the employer and some by the employees, i.e. workers. By learning what are the types of labor lawsuits, you can find answers to questions such as “How do I get my receivable from the employer?” “Which lawsuit is used to collect labor receivables?” “What are the lawsuits that workers can file?”. 

         You can file all of these types of lawsuits yourself, but as we have said throughout our article, considering your loss of rights and the amount of your receivable, working with a lawyer and consulting a labor lawyer will be more beneficial for you financially and at the same time in terms of the moral aspect of this comfort.
