Publication: Periyodik Sağlık Kontrolünden Kaçınan İşçinin İş Sözleşmesinin Derhal Feshi
Abstract
6331 sayılı İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği Kanunu’nun 15.maddesine göre işverenin çalışanlarını sağlık kontrolüne tabi tutması gerekmekte olup, işverenin bu yükümlülüğünü yerine getirmemesi halinde idari ve hukuki yaptırımlarla karşılaşacağı çeşitli yasal düzenlemelerde belirtilmiştir. Bu yasal yükümlülük çerçevesinde işverenin işyerinde periyodik muayene ve sağlık tetkiklerini yaptırdığı esnada, bir işçinin tüm uyarı ve ısrarlara rağmen sağlık kontrolünü yaptırmaması, sağlık kontrolünden haklı bir mazereti olmaksızın kaçınması durumunda işveren tarafından iş sözleşmesi haklı nedenle feshedilebilir. Yerel Mahkeme de işçinin periyodik olarak sağlık muayenelerinin yaptırılmasının iş güvenliği kapsamında olan sağlık muayenesine katılmayarak kendisinin işten çıkarılmasına sebep oluşturduğu ve kötü niyetli olduğu ve işverenin feshinin haklı olduğu yönünde hüküm tesis etmiş, bu karar İzmir Bölge Adliye Mahkemesi 9. Hukuk Dairesi’nin kararıyla onanarak kesinleşmiştir.
