Özet: Sensitive data are counted one by one in Article 6 of the Personal Data Protection Law. These data, such as race, ethnic origin, political opinion, health and sexual life, and a criminal conviction in the law, are sensitive data that may cause discrimination compared to other data. From the establishment of the business relationship and through this relationship, the employer has to process the employees’ data mostly as a legal obligation. Sensible data of the employee must be protected from the beginning to the end or even after the end of the business relationship. In this business relationship, it is obligatory in terms of protecting the employee’s personal right as well as the obligation of the employer to take care of the employee. The employer’s obligation to protect the personal data of the employee is protected by various provisions in both international and national law. In terms of protecting the personal data of the employee, the provisions of the service contract and the provisions of the Turkish Civil Law protecting the personal rights of the Code of Obligations should be taken into consideration within this framework. Also, the relevant provisions of the Law on the Protection of Personal Data No.6698 should be especially taken into consideration. When damage occurs due to the illegal or illegal processing of the special quality personal data of the employee, the employer will be obliged to compensate for this damage.
