Türkiye Sick Pay Calculator Added

Hesaplayıcı has a new sick pay calculator for Türkiye. It finds the temporary incapacity benefit that SGK pays for an illness, work accident, occupational disease or birth report. It takes the daily earnings from the last 12 months, applies the outpatient and inpatient rates, the unpaid days, the SGK floor and ceiling, with separate rules for employees and the self-employed.

What does the calculator find?

You enter the reason, the treatment, the report dates, your gross wage or the total earnings of the last 12 months, and the premium days. The calculator gives the daily earnings, the daily pay, the paid and unpaid days and the total. It also handles a hospital stay followed by rest at home, and a report that continues the previous one. Every step shows its formula.

How much is sick pay?

Two thirds of the daily earnings for outpatient treatment and one half for inpatient treatment. The daily earnings are the earnings on which premiums were paid in the 12 months before the month of the report, divided by the premium days. They cannot be below the SGK floor: in 2026 the daily floor is 1,101.00 TRY, so a minimum wage worker gets 734 TRY a day as an outpatient and 550.50 TRY in hospital. Each month’s earnings also stop at that month’s SGK ceiling; in 2026 the daily ceiling is 9,909.00 TRY.

Are the first 2 days of a report paid?

Not for illness: SGK pays from the 3rd day of the report and needs at least 90 premium days in the year before it. A report that continues the previous one without a gap does not lose the 2 days again. Work accident, occupational disease and birth reports are paid from the first day. A self-employed (Bağ-Kur) insured gets no pay for illness; for a work accident, only the hospital days and the rest after them are paid.

How is sick pay worked out during maternity leave?

Every day of maternity leave is paid at two thirds of the daily earnings, with no 2-day rule. Since 21 December 2024, the daily earnings come from the 12 months before the month of the birth (Law no. 7537). Find the leave dates with the maternity leave calculator and enter them in the sick pay calculator.

Worked example

A worker who earned a gross 60,000 TRY a month in the last 12 months has daily earnings of 2,000 TRY and an outpatient daily pay of 1,333.33 TRY. For a 14-day outpatient illness report from 5 to 18 October 2026, the first 2 days come off and SGK pays 12 × 1,333.33 = 15,999.96 TRY. With the same earnings, a mother whose baby is born on 1 December 2026 gets 74,666.48 TRY for the 56 days of leave before the birth, from 6 October to 30 November 2026. Find your own amount with the sick pay calculator; the sick pay guide explains the rules, and every period of the floor and ceiling is in the SGK floor and ceiling table.
