Chart of the month
What does it show?
Knowing the amount of a case on its own does not tell you whether it is high or low. Türkiye Index shows the typical figure for cases of the same type and the range most cases fall into, so you can see where your own case stands.
- Typical case: the case exactly in the middle when cases are sorted from smallest to largest. Half are below this amount, half above.
- One in two cases falls in this range: the range covered by the middle half of cases.
- Months of minimum wage: the amount is divided by the minimum wage of the month of the calculation. This makes years comparable; inflation does not inflate the figure.
- Findings: a single sentence describing something visible in the data, for example in how many cases claiming annual leave no leave was used at all. A finding does not say why.
Three indices
COMPENSATION
Traffic and work accidents
Typical compensation in injury and fatal cases, how many months of minimum wage it is worth and how it has changed over the years.

Employment claims
Severance, notice, overtime, annual leave and holiday pay: how often each item is claimed and what a typical case is worth.
Details →CRIMINAL
Sentence execution
Total prison sentence by offence group and the part of it served until conditional release.

Where do the figures come from?
From traffic accident, work accident, employment claim and sentence execution calculations made by lawyers on the Tazminat.com portal. Trial calculations are not counted. If several calculations were made for the same case, only the last one is used. Traffic and work accident cases are recalculated with the same method so that amounts are comparable.
The index is recalculated at the start of every month from all cases, including the previous month. Compensation and employment findings come from cases of the last 12 months, criminal findings from the last 36 months. The method is explained in detail on the index's How is it calculated? page.
Privacy
No names, case numbers or personal details are kept; only grouped summaries are produced. No group smaller than 30 cases is shown. If showing a group would reveal another small group, that one is hidden too. The amount you enter for comparison is not stored.
Türkiye Index is a statistic produced from calculations entered by portal users; it is not legal advice, a precedent or a commitment to any compensation amount. The assessment of the case belongs to the user.
