Greece is experiencing a chronic scarcity of workforce that poses a real danger to its development. The government requires more than 300,000 foreign workers in different fields to meet the shortage of human resources in the country. This is why employers are looking for stable staffing solutions.
A Growing Demand for Foreign Workers
The shortage of workers in Greece is observed across a range of sectors, with a focus on the tourist, information and technology, construction, and production industries. The country needs workers for waiters and cooks in restaurants and hotels as well as other service industries, and team personnel such as electricians, welders, and IT personnel. The tourism industry in Greece, which falls among the biggest in the world, suffers from a severe staff deficit, which becomes even more pronounced during the high seasons.
Besides these sectors, more workers are required in systems security, machine operations, plumbing, and production. Since both industries play critical roles in supporting Greece’s economy, finding qualified human resources is of paramount importance.
The Challenges of Hiring Foreign Workers
Despite the severe shortages of foreign labor in the Greek market, entering into an association with a foreign worker is not an obstacle-free procedure. These procedures can take a lot of time, making the process slow. It can take as long as six to nine months to secure a foreign worker when hiring seasonal employees. This is quite a disadvantage, especially for businesses such as tourism that are likely to experience high demands on human resources at certain times of the year.
Moreover, although Greece has improved its ways of decreasing the entry coefficients for foreign and highly qualified workers through the EU Blue Card, entry remains difficult for the low-skilled workers. This remains a challenge for many companies that cannot seem to simplify the recruitment process.
