Labor Minister Adonis Georgiadis spoke on the show “Society Hour MEGA” about it new labor bill, the provisions of which have already caused reactions.
Referring to “zero work” contracts or her bespoke employmentAdonis Georgiadis emphasized that through the bill many years of outstanding issues will be settled.
«This bill has honesty in our dealings. Zero hours contracts made headlines. I ask now, have you not heard at all about catering companies that take on temporary staff, who are forced to go and get paid black? Isn’t that right?”
«Tokens will count towards the replenishment ratethat is, he will have a higher pension. Someone who had been working for the last 10 years and had one 8 hour contract and one part time contract, that was illegal. Until this bill it was illegal, you could do two part-time contracts,” he explained.
Among other things, he stated that the full contract and the part-time contract allow an employee’s minimum rest limit not to be disturbed.
«Our goal is to make our working relationships more honest with each other. We’ve mapped what’s really going on in the world we live in and we’re doing it in an organized way,” he said.
For contracts
Yet, clarified that after the trial period of 6 months the contracts will be open-ended.
“Since 2010 in Greece, up to 12 months, if an employer fires you, you don’t get compensation. With the current law, he can fire you without any reason after 12 months. This will change, it will be 6 months. After 6 months you will have a normal contract. You will not receive compensation until 12 months of work, but the employer will not be able to fire you so easily after the second semester. he said.
As for tourism, he emphasized that this year the shortage of workers in the sector reached 60,000.
One-click drafting
Furthermore, the Minister of Labor referred to the next day for pensioners, stressing that one-click pension is a goal of the “not-so-distant future”.
According to the estimates of Mr. Georgiadis, the above will be implemented within the next 3-4 years.
“Full implementation of the digital job card in 1 year”
The digital job card it is already a daily routine for employees in supermarkets and banks, while it is expected that within the next year it will be mandatory for all businesses.
«It is a revolution brought to us by technologywhich if used correctly will greatly help the business and the employee. Nobody will be able to steal anything, everything will be transparent. We are in a fruitful dialogue with sectors of the economy to implement it in the right way”, he said.
In particular, he stated that will proceed to issue different ministerial decisions per sector in order to be properly and functionally implemented.
“In the business that will use the digital card, the indicated work will be fined as if it were black. Today, if the Labor Inspectorate enters a company and finds an uninsured employee, the fine is 10,500 euros. It is a high fine and this led to the fight against black labor.
If, however, he is put on reduced hours and has 10 hours to work and the Labor Inspectorate finds him, the fine is 500 euros. So many companies have moved the worker from the sphere of black labor to the undeclared,” he said, stressing that the fine in the case of the digital labor card will be 10,500 euros.
