Amid increasing demand for farm labor, Greece is exploring recruitment of agricultural workers from various countries including Egypt and Vietnam, according to reports.
Greece is intensifying efforts to attract agricultural workers from countries ranging from Egypt to Vietnam to address labor shortages in the farming sector, according to media reports. While official statements from the Greek Ministry of Labour have not detailed specific countries, reports indicate an expanding search for foreign farm workers to support Greece’s agricultural economy. This move aligns with broader trends in the Region where nations facing labor deficits are seeking migrant workers to sustain vital industries. The search includes cooperation discussions with countries such as Egypt, Vietnam, and others, aiming to establish legal frameworks and agreements for the recruitment of overseas workers. No official complaints or mistreatment reports have emerged in connection with this recruitment drive. The Greek authorities emphasize the need for regulated and ethical labor import practices to benefit both workers and the domestic agricultural sector. Ongoing research by universities and labor market analysts continues to monitor the impact of migration on Greece’s economic development and labor markets.
