This regulation, published on 11 March 2026 in the Official Gazette No. 33193, makes targeted amendments to the existing 2018 promotion and title change rules for TCDD Taşımacılık A.Ş. personnel. It removes the 'servis müdür yardımcısı' position from several eligibility lists, eliminates one subparagraph entirely, and adds 'teknisyen yardımcısı' to the list of base positions eligible for promotion to certain operational roles. The most substantial changes appear in Article 8, which completely rewrites the specific requirements (education, prior service years, and experience thresholds) for over 25 different managerial, supervisory, and technical positions ranging from Şube Müdürü to various Mühendis, Makinist, and Lojistik roles. New minimum service periods, specific educational qualifications by department, and mandatory training courses (such as Cer Teknik Elemanları Kursu) are stipulated for each title.
