ARE TERMINATION NOTICES FOR EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS SENT VIA E-MAIL OR TEXT MESSAGE VALID?

If the employee has given explicit or implicit consent to be served notices via their e-mail address or mobile phone via SMS, the termination performed by the employer is considered to comply with formal requirements. Likewise, if the employer has accepted that statements made to them explicitly or implicitly via e-mail address or SMS will have legal consequences, terminations carried out pursuant to Article 24 of the Labor Law are considered to have been made in writing. It is sufficient that the e-mail address or the number to which the message is sent belongs to the counterparty to whom the termination notice is to be served.
