Greek hotel workers to strike over pay and staff shortages
Hotel workers protest in front of the Acropolis in Athens

GREEK hotel workers are set to walk out on strike today in a dispute over staff shortages and wage stagnation as the tourist season is in full swing. 

Workers said they were forced to act as “the miserable situation we are experiencing inside the workplace continues.”

Staff shortages are a choice deliberately made by employers despite hotel occupancy rates reaching 100 per cent and revenues close to the pre-pandemic levels, trade unions said.
