ATHENS -- The labor ministry has always stood -and still stands- at the forefront of the government's plan to protect incomes and employment from the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic, said Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis after his visit to the ministry on Friday.
Speaking with the newly appointed Labor Minister Kostis Hatzidakis (formerly the Energy Minister), reiterated both his own and Hatzidakis' commitment to see through the issue of retroactive pension payouts; to this effect, they both underlined and effectively announced the creation of a task force headed by a project manager who will ensure that overdue pension compensations will be given to retirees as soon as possible, by way of fast-tracking the issue.
