The plan has as its first pillar the securing of the required resources secured by the draft state budget for 2025.
Specifically, from the budget data, it appears that the fund for recruitment in the State in 2025 will reach 654 million euros, an amount 3.6 times greater than the corresponding fund in 2024, which did not exceed 176 million euros. In particular, the expenses under allocation include a fund of 792 million euros for recruitment and salary increases in the State. The remaining 149 million euros from the fund of unallocated appropriations will be allocated for State wage increases that will be made in order not to cover the difference that will result from the new increase in the minimum wage from April 1, 2025 and from the fund for performance bonus (40 million euros) as well as from the other individual increases given to the State, such as e.g. the maturations.

The second part is that the recruitments are not just announced, but done. The draft law, which was submitted during the week to the Parliament, provides for the acceleration of recruitment for the successful candidates of the ASEP.
The bill brings changes to five points that delayed the recruitment of successful candidates by up to five years, since the goals of the bill include the filling of positions for the years 2022 to 2025 through the pan-Hellenic written competition of the 2C/2022 announcement and other future competitions. The changes that will be voted on in the coming weeks concern:
1 The introduction of the so-called open lottery through software that will determine the order of ranking of the candidates per announcement: This tool ensures transparency and fairness in the recruitment process, while helping to speed up the evaluation of applications.
2 The creation of a central electronic platform for submitting applications and supporting documents: The platform, which will be managed by the Ministry of Interior, will ensure that recruitment is done through a uniform and easy-to-use process. This will eliminate delays and provide transparency and flexibility in the recruitment process.
3 Amendments to the Staff Status Code: Among the amendments introduced by the bill, the revision of the Status Code of Public Political Administrative Servants (n. 3528/2007) and the Status Code of Municipal and Community Servants (n. 3584/2007) stands out. These amendments are intended to reduce deadlines and speed up appointment procedures. These changes will lead to the shortening of the time required to complete the recruitment, making the system more flexible and immediate.
4 Locality scoring: One of the most critical changes concerns the addition of scoring due to locality. In particular, candidates for positions in island, mountainous and mainland municipalities will receive increased points. This measure aims to motivate local populations to participate in recruitment and contribute to the development of their areas. At the same time, the measure aims to solve the problems of understaffing in remote and inaccessible areas.
5 Import incentive and reward system which will be linked to targeting and evaluation: This system provides that employees who achieve the goals of the Unified Government Policy Plan (GPP) will be rewarded accordingly. This measure aims to increase the productivity and efficiency of services. The incentive system will be in effect from 2025 onwards and will offer specific benefits to employees who achieve predetermined targets. At the same time, the creation is foreseen Incentive and Reward Information Systemwhich will interoperate with the other systems related to the evaluation and management of human resources in the public administration.
