Abstract
The relations of Turkey with the EC play a most important role in Turkish economic life. Recently, however, these relations have been weighed down by considerable problems, the solution of which is of paramount importance for Turkey’s future relationship with the Community. One of the gravest problems is employment, and specifically the freedom of movement of Turkish workers in the countries of the Community. The actual coming together of millions of Turks with Europeans has by no means aided harmonious relations between Turkey and the EC; on the contrary, it has put serious strains on the relationship. However, the employment of Turkish workers in the EC could be a way of improving economic co-operation between the two partners.

It is supposed that productivity in the coming years will be poorer than in the past and that the working hours will continue to show the same trend, with an annual reduction averaging about one per cent.
