Özet:

Since the beginning of the 20th century, the public personnel regimes of the developed capitalist countries have gained a Fordist character. Fordism has started to experience crisis since the 1970s. From the 1980s onwards, a new phase called Post-Fordism has been passed. The Turkish public personnel regime has also been shaped by following the developments in the world. A holistic reform could not be made in the Turkish public personnel regime, which has undergone a post-Fordist change since the 1980s. Limited reformist regulations, on the one hand, led to constitutional conflict, and on the other hand, slowed the pace of reforms. This situation also led to the formation of a fragmented public personnel legislation. Employment of contract workers, which is one of the examples of post-Fordist structuring, has become widespread in the process and their number has increased a lot. In addition, the employment of subcontracted workers has led to many problems. The search for solutions to the problems that arose was discussed, and finally, a significant part of the subcontractor workers were assigned. In this study, the development of the Turkish public personnel regime and the hiring of contract workers are analyzed. It has been concluded that there is a need for a fundamental reform in the Turkish public personnel regime, which is performance-oriented and takes into account the interests of employees and the public together.
