Greek labor and economic concerns

Overview

PASOK MP Evangelia Liakouli has raised alarms regarding economic pressures in Greece, specifically highlighting the precarious situation of 2,500 employees at Pizza Fan. Liakouli criticized government policies for failing to address inflation and rising production costs in the agricultural sector, calling for state intervention to protect workers and small producers.

In response, Labor and Social Security Minister Niki Kerameus clarified that no administrative orders have been issued to close Pizza Fan or Choriatiko, and all employment contracts remain active. Kerameus outlined three possible outcomes for Pizza Fan: continued operation, acquisition, or closure. She stated that the state will ensure unemployment benefits are applied if a closure occurs, noting that employers remain legally obligated to pay wages as long as contracts are in effect.
