Minister: Fines for undeclared work halved for hiring firms in Greece

In an interview with the Athens-Macedonian News Agency (ANA) on Tuesday, Greek Labour Minister Efi Achtsioglou revealed plans to overhaul the architecture of the fine system for undeclared labour and contribution evasion, including the option of halving fines for companies that subsequently hire staff on a full-time basis.

According to her, the combination of the two measures seeks to deliver justice for undeclared employees. In the case of repeat offenders, however, the fines will become even progressively stiffer from a financial point of view and the companies involved will additionally face other sanctions, including a temporary closure of the business as voted by Parliament in September.
