Referring to cases of people who have pocketed the pensions of deceased relatives

The Minister of Labour, Mr Vroutsis, underlined that the country has one of the most modern and integrated systems in Europe, which helps save money and improve the quality of life of citizens.

“We have made a great effort, which has been questioned by many people, but it was successful. The insurance system is now fully shielded from illegal actions that have cost the state 5 billion euros in the last 15 years,” Mr Vroutsis said.
