Turkey's Ministry of Education plans to hire 70,000 school cleaning staff
The Turkish Ministry of National Education (MEB) is preparing to recruit approximately 70,000 cleaning personnel for schools nationwide. The hiring is expected to cover all 81 provinces, including central schools, district institutions, town and village schools. Applications are anticipated to begin in August, although the ministry has not yet published an official timetable or guidelines. Reports suggest the new positions may not require the public personnel exam (KPSS) and could be hired under a non‑permanent work model rather than traditional civil‑service status. The move would increase the existing cleaning workforce, which previously comprised about 55,000 staff and an additional 70,000 temporary personnel under the Toplum Yararına Program (TYP) during the last academic year.
