📢 Furious Greeks🇬🇷Protest Law Increasing Maximum Working Hours to 13 per Day

Thousands of Greek public sector workers are rallying against huge labor reforms proposed by the conservative govt just months after it was reelected.

PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis' govt says the overhaul would eliminate undeclared work and boost employment overall, but the opposition says it is an assault on workers' rights and would create "barbaric" conditions.

The move would allow full-time employees to get a part-time second job and work up to 13 hours a day unless certain terms apply and enables employers to implement a six-day working week if needed.

An employee can be fired within the first year of work without warning or remuneration, unless agreed otherwise, according to the new bill.
