3-MONTH INFLATION DIFFERENCE

According to the data shared by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK), inflation in March was announced at 2.46 percent monthly.

SGK and Bağ-Kur retirees have qualified for a 10.06 percent inflation difference for March 2025 based on inflation figures. The inflation difference that civil servants will receive was announced as 3.83 percent.

Since this increase will be reflected in the salaries in July 2025, it will be calculated cumulatively based on the monthly inflation rate announced each month.

The net figure will be determined after the 3 inflation data points to be announced for April, May, and June.

Civil servants and civil servant retirees will also receive a 15 percent collective bargaining agreement raise in July.
