[01] Uninsured work slows down, Labour Minister says
The Greek Corps of Labour Inspectors imposed fines of 9.22 million
euros for uninsured work from September 15 to December 31, according
to an announcement on Tuesday.
"The targeted controls for uninsured work carried out mainly in
sectors and activities with high infringement rates show that the
recorded uninsured work presents strong disinflation trends after
the implementation of the Artemis project," Labour Minister Yiannis
Vroutsis said.
"While in February 2013 the percentage of uninsured work had reached
40.47 percent, it was reduced to 20.57 percent in November and fell
further to 18.95 percent in December," he added.
Vroutsis said that it is the first time that such an organized and
systematic effort as the Artemis project is being made in Greece to
combat uninsured work. "We have established the highest fines ever
imposed on uninsured work, which are imposed on the spot and without
delays or bureaucratic procedures," he noted.
