Raise the minimum wage
«We're headed for our fourth consecutive increase in the minimum wage. Already in 2019 the minimum wage has increased by 20%. What we can say for sure is that the minimum wage will be 8. Community stakeholders have submitted their proposals and we are processing them to submit the proposal to the cabinet of our government.».
For three years of “freezing”.
«From January 1, 2024, the three-year period in the private sector, suspended since 2012, will return to normal without “turning off” austerity and tips, providing for a 10% increase in their salary at the end of three years. Let me clarify that the increase is mandatory. To confirm this, on the one hand, we have intensive tests by the Independent Labor Inspection Commission. On the other hand, we have a tool that informs each employee through the computer how this action is being used».
For retrospectives of pensioners
«By the end of March, many pensioners will see more retroactive payments in their accounts. This happens because pensioners like ISAP, Olympiaki, public law and legal entities of banks do not see the recalculation of their pensions through the Katrougalos Law and the Vroutsis Law.
Therefore, the Governor of e-EFKA Mr. Alexandros Varvaris has made a great effort not only in the speedy disbursement of pensions but also in the correct recalculation of the pensions of our fellow citizens of the aforementioned categories. Month, the pensioners will see the upwardly revised pension in their bank account».

EFKA provides upfront payments to a group of pensioners covering 5 to 7 years of arrears.
In particular, By the end of March, 6,000 pensioners of the former Olympia will be paid pioneer pensions.While before Completed 1,000 recalculations of old ISAP pensioners.
April or May About 10,000 retired bankers will be paid retrospectively.
At the same time, new payments are prepared for pensioners who are not recalculated for various reasons.
