From the construction industry to the tourism sector, Greek employers cannot find the staff they need. The government's solution: longer working hours. A new law enables employers to implement a six-day work week

“While the 40-hour work week is still officially in place, employers are permitted to require staff to work up to two unpaid hours per day for a limited period in return for more free time.”

    I live in Athens. I just want to say Kudos to all the greeks, they are hard worker, simple and unpretentious people. Its so unfortunate that these people need to work long hour.

    And the rent here is a problem thanks to AirBNB and greedy landlords, for example i know people who needs to pay €400 monthly rent (not included utilities bills) with their €1000 monthly salary, and at the end of the month they have nothing to save.
