Workplace counselling roles: evidence from turkey

Aim of this study is to gather participants’ views about the service of workplace counselling and lighten some issues about expectations from a workplace counsellor with regard to career counselling and counselling roles. Workplace counselling has been widely used in United States of America and European Countries. However, usage of this service has been recent in Turkey. Even though there are researches conducted in this area, there has been a gap and dissensus in the literature about the aims, responsibilities and roles of workplace counselling. This study aims to contribute to this gap. First of all, literature survey on workplace counselling and counselling roles will be mentioned and research questions with demographic information of the participants will be presented. Findings of the study in reference to the previous research and essential points that should be investigated in the future research are also discussed.
