Greece 1st EU Country To Introduce 6 Day Working Week

Greece 1st EU Country To Introduce 6 Day Working Week
Jul 3 2024 Share

In an effort to boost productivity, Greece has introduced a 48-hour working week, allowing employees to work a sixth day.

This move, starting Monday, is contrary to global trends towards shorter working weeks and has been criticised by unions as “barbaric.”

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis argues the measure is necessary due to a shrinking population and a shortage of skilled workers. The new policy applies to private businesses providing 24/7 services, offering employees the option to work an additional two hours daily or an extra eight-hour shift with a 40% wage increase.

Critics claim the reform undermines the five-day workweek, giving employers too much control and diminishing worker protections.

They argue that better productivity is achieved through improved working conditions and shorter hours, not longer ones. The reform has sparked protests, with opponents accusing the government of prioritising profits over workers’ rights.

Greece’s labor landscape has already been strained by austerity measures, leading to weaker unions and lower wages, despite Greeks working the longest hours in Europe.

The legislation also encourages pensioners to work, which some argue is unfair to unemployed young Greeks. Overall, the measure has faced significant backlash for its perceived unfairness and potential negative impact on work-life balance.

He mentioned that the detainees are housed in three separate areas, tailored to their needs and in accordance with relevant legislation.
