Özet:

 According to the ILO Convention No. 102, family benefits are a social security branch established to compensate for the increase in the expenditure of those protected due to the expenses necessary for the care of the children, they are responsible for, and to protect the level of life they have reached before the childs existence. Periodic payments made to those who take care of the child within the scope of the family benefits social security branch are generally called child benefits. Child benefit is the most basic and common type of benefit provided under the family benefits social security branch. It is possible to find child benefits in all countries where there is an institutional family benefits social security branch. Child benefit can make positive contributions in many such areas as increasing the fertility and population of the country, reducing poverty, preventing child poverty and extending the countrys welfare level to the whole society. In this respect, countries develop different child benefit practices by developing different benefit conditions depending on their population policies and economic development levels. In this study, current practices in EU member countries are examined on the basis of minimum standards of child benefits under the Convention No. 102 and a comparative analysis of these practices is presented. As a result of the study, it has been seen that all parents residing in EU member countries have the opportunity to benefit from child benefits for their children residing in these countries, and child benefits are provided without premium except Austria and France.

 102 sayılı ILO Sözleşmesine göre aile yardımları, geçimini sağlamakla mükellef oldukları çocukların bakımı için gerekli harcamalar nedeniyle korunan kimselerin giderlerinde meydana gelen artışların telafi edilmesi ve çocuğun varlığından önce ulaşmış oldukları yaşam seviyesinin korunması amacıyla kurulan bir sosyal güvenlik koludur. Aile yardımları sosyal güvenlik kolu kapsamında çocuğun bakımını üstlenen kişilere yapılan periyodik ödemeler ise genel olarak çocuk yardımı olarak adlandırılır. Çocuk yardımı, aile yardımları sosyal güvenlik kolu kapsamında yapılan en temel ve yaygın yardım türüdür. Kurumsal aile yardımı sosyal güvenlik kolunun bulunduğu tüm ülkelerde çocuk yardımlarına rastlamak mümkündür. Çocuk yardımı; ülkedeki doğurganlığın ve ülke nüfusunun artırılması, yoksulluğun azaltılması, çocuk yoksulluğunun engellenmesi ve ülke refah seviyesinin tüm topluma yaygınlaştırılması, gibi pek çok alanda olumlu katkı sağlayabilmektedir. Bu bakımdan ülkeler, nüfus politikaları ve ekonomik gelişmişlik düzeylerine bağlı olarak farklı yararlanma koşulları geliştirerek farklı çocuk yardımı uygulamaları geliştirmektedir. Bu çalışmada 102 sayılı Sözleşme kapsamındaki aile yardımı asgari standartları esas alınarak AB üyesi ülkelerdeki mevcut çocuk yardımı uygulamaları incelenmiş ve bu uygulamaların karşılaştırmalı bir analizi sunulmuştur. Çalışma sonucunda AB üyesi ülkelerde ikamet eden tüm ebeveynlerin bu ülkelerde ikamet eden çocukları için çocuk yardımlarından yararlanma imkânı bulunduğu ve çocuk yardımlarının Avusturya ve Fransa dışında primsiz olarak sağlandığı görülmüştür.
