The Greek government, like other governments around the world, has taken a number of measures through the adoption of legislative acts and ministerial decisions to facilitate and support the labour market, employers and workers affected by the emergency and temporary measures taken to address the consequences of the coronavirus – COVID 19 pandemic.
