From the construction industry to the tourism sector, Greek employers cannot find the staff they need. The government's solution: longer working hours. A new law enables employers to implement a six-day work week

“While the 40-hour work week is still officially in place, 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.”

    I don’t understand how legislators can look at the fact that their country already works longer hours than anyone else in Europe and conclude that the problem is that they aren’t working enough hours

      They don’t. They get paid to sorta pretend enough to just make laws, and after enough horrible decisions, they retire with half the bank or die owning all of it.
