Law will regulate flexible jobs

A draft law that will be submitted to the Greek Parliament in September seeks to regulate flexible types of employment such as zero-hours contracts, where the employer is not obliged to provide a minimum number of working hours to an employee. 

These practices already exist, they are just unregulated.

The law would protect employees from employer retaliation if they refuse to put in work without a timely notification, usually, but not always, at least 24 hours. It would also prohibit contract clauses precluding working another job. 

Other provisions include penalties for strikers if they attempt to prohibit other employees from working, and the ability to hold a part-time job in addition to a full-time one, provided total employment per day does not exceed 13 hours.
