Eski Hükümlü İstihdamında Karşılaşılan Sorunlar ve Çözüm Önerileri

Today, ex-convicts are considered among the disadvantaged groups. There are several reasons for this disadvantage. Practices and trainings that will allow ex-convicts to socialize and adapt to social life are provided to them both from the moment they are convicted, that is, during the execution of their sentences and after the execution of their sentences is completed. However, even though they served their sentence, they have social, economic and political disadvantages since they are described as ex-convict after completing their execution. One of the most important disadvantages incurred by ex-convicts as a result of the execution of their sentence is the economic disadvantage. Especially due to the criminal record of the ex-convicts and the quotas regulated by laws, ex-convicts find it very difficult to be employed. As a matter of fact, employers are not obliged to recruit the exconvicts, which reduces the employment rate. In this study, the difficulties faced by ex-convicts in the employment process have been identified and solutions have been tried to be offered for the participation of ex-convicts in employment. In order to facilitate the adaptation of ex-convicts to society and ensure that they can get out of mental breakdown and exclusion psychology, determinations have been made to eliminate economic disadvantage. Accordingly, programs which encourage the employment of ex-convicts should be implemented. However, it is recommended that the ex-convict quota be returned to the private sector. Sharing the responsibility in this regard among individuals active in each field of the society, non-governmental organizations and not only the Ministry of Justice but also many ministries will constitute an important step towards eliminating the disadvantage.
