In 2021, the Ministry of Labour, Social Services and Family divided into two new (old) ministries: Ministry of Family and Social Services and Ministry of Labour and Social Security.

The new ministries have their own flags, and I also found three more versions of the flags of the old (unified) ministry.

Turkish Employment Agency

İŞKUR (website) originates in the Institution for Providing Jobs and Employees (İş ve İşçi Bulma Kurumu - İİBK), established by Law No. 4,837 adopted on 21 January 1946 by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey. Operational on 15 March 1946, the institution aimed at finding jobs and employees, that is, “for employees finding jobs suitable to their qualities and for employers finding employees having suitable qualities for the job."
İİBK was abolished by Statutory Decree No. 617 issued on 4 October 2000, which established İŞKUR. On 31 October 2010, the Constitutional Court abrogated the Decree, leaving İŞKUR operating without any legal basis.
İŞKUR was eventually established by Law No. 4,904, adopted on 25 June 2003 by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey and published on 5 July 2003 in the Turkish official gazette, No. 25,159.

İŞKUR uses three different flags featuring the agency's emblem:
- white with the emblem in dark blue (photo, photo, photo, photo);
- light blue with the emblem in white (photo, photo, photo, photo, photo);
- dark blue with the emblem in light blue (graphic element) and white (acronym) (photo, photo).
