Exploitation and psychological strain in residency training: workload and shift violations in Turkish medical schools and research hospitals

Despite the existence of TUEY, medical faculties in Turkey fail to fully adhere to the regulations. Medical residents face severe issues, including excessive workload, lack of post-shift rest, psychological pressure, and inadequate training. To address these problems, independent oversight mechanisms should be established, ethical training should be provided to faculty members, and legal support should be made available to residents.
