Özet:

The traditional view concerning the composition of labour courts tends to guarantee the independence and impartiality of courts. A similar conception leads to a restrictive approach towards arbitration and other alternative modes of resolution of labour litigation, due to the need to protect the worker. How- ever, this restrictive approach tends to be abandoned, faced with an increasing number of files and workload touching in particular the labour chambers of the Court of Cassation. Therefore, alternative modes of resolution are studied and discussed, in view to improve the administration of Justice. On the other hand, collective interest disputes are of a different nature, and traditionally submitted to more diversified ways of solution, such as mediation and compulsory arbitra- tion in some cases. At this regard, the important function given to trade unions, characterize the Turkish industrial relations system.
