The changes in the part of mandatory telework are brought by the launch of coronavirus cases in the country, both in the private and public sectors.
According to government announcements, the percentage of compulsory teleworking across Greece, both in the public and private sectors, is increasing from 40% to 50%.
As also announced, workers in high-risk areas (formerly orange and red Regional Units) employed in companies that are closed by state decision will be subject to a mandatory temporary suspension of their employment contracts, as long as the company remains closed.
The allocation of 534 euros
These are beneficiaries of a special purpose compensation of 534 euros for a 30-day suspension. If the duration of the suspension is less, they will receive the ratio of days of suspension to 534 euros. They have full insurance coverage by the state mechanism on their nominal salary (not on 534 euros).
The companies undertake not to lay off employees during the period of suspension of employment contracts. There is a similar ban on dismissal for an equal period after suspension. If, however, they are carried out, they are legally invalid and the dismissed person has the right to render his services and the non-compliant employer accepts them, otherwise he will be delayed.
But also throughout the country, companies that are significantly affected by the expanded list of KAD decided in April and have a headquarters or branch in a Regional Unit, which has been designated level 4 (red zone) or level 3 (orange zone ) have the ability to put all or some of their employees on contract suspension, so that they too can receive the 534 euros.
