ABSTRACT
This report focuses on the information available in the CBA Database on collective agreements in Turkey. More precisely, to investigate any possible change in the process of renewal of collective agreements in Turkey during the pandemic, we exploit the information collected through the annotation of the content of 12 Turkish collective agreements signed before and renewed after the explosion of the Covid-19 pandemic. We investigate whether: i) the number of signatories has changed, ii) the type of signatories has changed; iii) direct references are made with respect to the pandemic for what concerns the process of agreement renewal.
