HAK-İŞ union leadership has conducted a series of meetings to address regional and national labor concerns in Turkey.

Initially, regional representatives met with General President Mahmut Arslan in Ankara to present specific grievances and operational difficulties faced by workers in the Mardin region. Arslan committed to taking necessary initiatives regarding these reported issues.

Subsequently, the HAK-İŞ Confederation expanded its focus to high-level strategic discussions. During an expanded board meeting and panel attended by the Minister of Labor and Social Security, leaders examined the collective bargaining system and the Public Framework Protocol. Parallel discussions within the HİZMET-İŞ union addressed broader economic issues, including minimum wage, tax injustice, the retirement system, and staffing shortages in State Economic Enterprises (KİT).
