Greek Parliament Discusses Minimum Wage Legislation Amid Opposition Critique
The Greek Parliament is concluding discussions on a new minimum wage law designed as a safety net for workers, as requested by the Greek Communist Party. The Minister of Labor, Niki Kerameos, highlighted plans for a 46% increase in the minimum wage by 2027, but the opposition criticized the bill as timid. The left opposition, SYRIZA, argues that the law lacks practical solutions to wage issues, while smaller opposition parties question its effectiveness.
