For the digital work card, the digitization of stamping tabs for faster Pensions to E-EFKA But also about collective agreements, the Minister of Labor and Social Security Niki Kerameos spoke.
“OR work card The working hours have not changed, “the minister said, adding that” 1.5 million workers are protected by the work card and we have some first details of the new extensions we have made in tourism and catering in March.
It was the first month Universal Application of the Card to Tourism. For example, there we had a spectacular increase in overtime. We had an increase of 637% only in March and it is worth noting that March is not yet in the summer season. (…) Who benefits? First of all the employee, who will see a significant increase because the working time is now paid. It helps a lot to ensure that it is paid for working time, real work time.
Secondly, it helps healthy competition between businesses, because a business that makes them all legal, pays taxes and contributions and another that is 30 meters below and does not do it all right, you realize that this is distorting competition.
And the third is very important that all this is revenue for the state, which the state can return to society as a dividend, “he said, speaking to ERT today.
Regarding whether the digital work card differentiates the working hours, the minister said characteristically that “nothing has changed. The card is a control tool. The shifts have not changed, the working hours have not changed, nothing has changed at all. So what happened can be done with the only difference that now we have a much more powerful control tool to primarily protect workers and healthy competition. “
For her visit to the E-EFKA Digitization Center, the minister said, among other things, that the stamps that insureds had until 2005 were largely manuscripts, “your strata, how much have you worked, with what salary, etc. To get an auxiliary pension today? It has these handwritten stamps from behind, so you have to find these tabs. Very often, they are in some underground, in some warehouses in the periphery, anywhere. The file should be found, transferred to the EFKA store and the employee dealing with the issuance of the pension. Process this content and then proceed and retire. Project time -consuming and difficult. It may have been lost along the way. So we are digitizing these tabs right now.
