Well that’s some backwards bullshit.
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.
Wow.
I hope this is at least banking that time; you don’t get overtime, but you can use that time later for paid time off.
Still sucks that it could be mandatory. I work in a government job in Australia and we have “Flexible Hours” which means that any time worked under or over the standard 7:30hrs per day counts towards a flex balance. Then we can use the excess flex balance to then taking shorter days or even take a couple days off if we have the balance for it. It works wonders for staff morale and retention.
I hope so too, that has to be a very difficult situation for working parents to navigate.
Better than South Korea’s 69 hour work week
No wonder they’re not having children if they spend all their time 69ing
Obligatory “nice”
Let’s call it nicen’t
neoliberalism in its essence
I mean how does the government regulate this even?
If I was a skilled worker, I’d tell the company I work 5 days or I don’t work for you …
Starvation and homelessness are quite powerful motivators.
Thanks I hate it.
That’s how you fuck up. Greece already had insane working hours, that doesn’t seem to be the problem.
Greek Brain Drain incoming.
Can they don’t
At least they are legally employing people, in other countries in Southern Europe people work an illegal amount of time but as long as the official contract declares a lower amount of hours it’s fine (neither retirements funds nor taxes nor insurance are paid for the extra time, obviously).
