Employment of a child in the fields of art, culture and advertising according to article 71 of Labour Code

The purpose of this study is to examine the legal characteristics of child employment in the fields of art, culture and advertising activities in compliance with the article 71 of the Labor Code. With the amendment made to the Labor Code with the law no 6645 dated 04.04.2015, the law-maker had anticipated employment of the children under age fourteen in art, culture and advertising activities. This innovation actually provided legal basis for the employment of small children, who were employed for a long time without any legal basis in the art, culture and advertising activities.
