Economic literacy is seen among basic knowledge and skills in today's world, both individually and institutionally. Evaluating economic conditions and making plan require interpreting economic data. It may be necessary to make critical decisions on many issues that affect our present and future. Economic literacy helps individuals and therefore institutions and society to make more rational economic decisions. In this study, it was aimed to determine the economic literacy levels of health workers. Health workers are made up of different occupational groups. For this reason, it was also investigated whether the economic literacy levels of health workers differ significantly in terms of various socio-demographic variables or not. Questionnaire method was preferred to collect data in the study.
