g. Department of Transportation Services

The Department of Transportation Services, which operates to fulfill the tasks and duties within its area of ​​responsibility in line with the vision and mission of BAYÜ, is in intense interaction with many factors, both in the country and the city, as transportation and communication, which are important elements of economic and social life. Developments in technology in recent years have brought to the forefront the desire of people to use their time more efficiently in the economic and social fields. With the need for faster, safer and higher quality communication, it has become mandatory for the services in this field to be carried out by educated professional staff. The socioeconomic situation, which is developing and changing every day in our country and in the world; distances, spatial differences and cultural differences have become less important. In parallel with this, people's needs for fast, safe and high-quality communication have come to the forefront. As a result of this, new applications have been launched for distribution services, cargo and logistics services within the scope of postal services. As a result of this change and development in the sector, the need to train intermediate staff with contemporary applications to be employed in this sector in order to meet the need for high-quality and educated personnel has emerged.

The Property Protection and Security Department Social Security Program, which operates to fulfill the tasks and duties within the scope of responsibility in line with the vision and mission of BAYÜ, refers to protecting people against the consequences of the dangers they will encounter and providing them with security in this regard. However, as a result of the developments in today's working life, this definition is not sufficient to express the concept of Social Security. When we evaluate the concept of Social Security from a broader perspective, it is not thought of as providing a sense of security to the person against the consequences of dangers and saving them from need to a minimum extent. Social Security is a discipline that includes issues such as employment problems, preventive and therapeutic medicine, vocational training, general education, and the solution of housing issues.

In addition, with the restructuring studies carried out in the field of Social Security in Turkey, Social Security services were combined under a single roof as the Social Security Institution, and with this restructuring, the provincial organization of the Social Security Institution has developed as an institution serving the entire population of our country. The Social Security Institution, which provides Social Security services to a large audience, has created a need for qualified professional personnel who have received training in the field of Social Security services.

Due to the expansions in the concept and applications of Social Security as well as the developments in the Turkish Social Security structure, the need for Social Security processes to be monitored by well-equipped and academically knowledgeable Social Security experts has emerged. In order for Social Security services to be provided effectively, there must be expert Social Security personnel in the central and provincial organizations of the Social Security Institution, the central and provincial organizations of İş Kur, all public institutions with personnel departments, and in the private sector, all institutions that manage Social Security processes by having their own units for human resources and personnel management processes or by receiving support from companies that provide Social Security services consultancy. The need for expert Social Security personnel in the field is increasing day by day in both the public and private sectors. Although the Social Security Institution and İş Kur provide in-service training to their current employees, the motivation of the employees is insufficient, and institutions suffer significant losses both materially and morally, since the majority of the employees receive training outside the field of Social Security. Social Security is a situation that closely and importantly concerns the entire country. In this context, the Social Security Program aims to meet the specified expert personnel needs of public and private institutions.
