Besides the hitherto actions at local and national level have shown that before entering the WE and not I, are always taken decisions collectively and not individually, while continuing widespread scale meetings in the Federation have been embraced by the majority of CCI, always with the interests of society and not of the guild.

Under this logic OEVEM will descend in the upcoming elections of the Chamber autonomous, independent and always in the best interests of the many rather than the few.

Under this logic we call this small portion of SMEs imagine alliances over or under the table to return to the brutal reality and their attitudes or their writings not to create situations, concerns or questions that do not exist.

The Federation of Professionals, Craftsmen and Merchants Magnesia. Through the statutory procedures will drive the results you need (pool manager who has not been announced yet) as well as its proposals for the Chamber’s operation either locally or regionally based Volos.

PRESS RELEASE

TOPIC: Fatal fine businesses.

Lately in our Federation we received several phone calls – complaints from professionals – craftsmen – traders regarding a fatal penalty which completely dissolves and more difficult the already stifling business situation.

Specifically, according to Law no. 4174/2013 and Articles 54 & 13 who declared loss of any numerical data amount of fine imposed without further investigation amounting € 2.500. In other words if a trader said sheet loss – consignment note will impose the same fine with an operator that indicates a reduction of 10 blocks. In the entire application of the fine did not take into account any evidence of the company. Ie 2.500 € will be fined in a booth, 2.500 € shall be imposed on any industry. Further action is action but again why bureaucracy or other matters the fine remains at € 2.500.

This measure is blatantly unfair as there is the principle of proportionality as regards the amount of the losses. This time after 15 August and on our members have become receivers 15 telephone complaints from professionals – craftsmen – traders who consider the measure deadly and unjust.

So we ask:

1. Application of the principle of proportionality ie if one trader indicated a loss of leaf and 2 blocks the penalty is 586 € as it was in the KBS-enabled administrative compromise 1/3.

2. Over the two blocks to be proportional application of the law in accordance with that case in the KVS.

Because the issue is inflamer and a major obstacle to our business please for your immediate action.

A cooperation for the development of human resources in technical professions today signed the tee, the GSEE and GSEVEE

The Technical Chamber of Greece (TEE), the Greek General Workers’ Confederation (GSEE) and the General Confederation of Professionals, Craftsmen and Merchants (GSEVEE), bringing together the strengths, experience and expertise went today an agreement on cooperation between them in order to implementation of an integrated and specialized assistance for the development of human resources.

The cooperation agreement signed today by the TEE President Giorgos Stasinos, by GSEE President Yiannis Panagopoulos and General Secretary Nikos Kioutsoukis and on behalf of President George GSEBEE Kavathas and Secretary General George fatigue. In signing the agreement was attended by members of the administration and staff of the three organizations.

The three players, keeping their own individual focus and approach, join forces and expertise to prepare a script with the strategic goals of recovery, creating new long term sustainable jobs, improve productivity, empowerment of protection grid, certification manpower qualifications, encouraging professional mobility, investment in research and innovation, to ensure the reliability and quality of arechomenon services of technical services.

The initiative of three organizations concerning employees, self-employed and unemployed in the technical professions sector at all levels thereof, with a focus on promoting and enhancing access to sectoral labor market, combating sectoral unemployment, skills upgrading in the direction and new job profiles, developing new skills and job qualifications compatible with the orientation of the new production model.

Notably collectively the “scope” and his actions tee, GSEE and GSEBEE extend throughout the range and exercise aspects of the technical sector professions.

Since the joint examination of the rapid and negative developments in recent years and the studies that have been in the hands of three bodies and their weighting in the rapidly ongoing scientific, technological, economic, social and demographic developments, production changes (new technology in machinery and tools, etc. new working and manufacturing methodologies) and European commitments to our country (eg energy savings in premises etc.) result – as general principles and assumptions – t a follows below:

· The new jobs require higher skills,

· New skills are emerging within the technical sector,

· Requires functional upgrade of existing disciplines,

· It mismatch of offered specialties of the Greek educational system and labor market needs of institutionalized disciplines,

· It is estimated that there will be an increase in the proportion of people who work in high-skilled jobs and gradual enlargement of the “gap” between jobs high and low qualifications,

· Expected evolving low-skilled jobs in positions of medium and high level qualifications,

· The character of future jobs ( “next generation jobs”) will be changed,

· Noted a function of the access, residence and advancement in the sectoral labor market by continuously updating and upgrading of knowledge, skills and social skills, and not just the acquisition of formal educational qualifications.

The observed “inconsistency”, recorded by numerous research data, between the prospect dynamic progress of technical specialties and exorbitant unemployment rates experienced in the industry, is a dangerous and toxic ‘Greek productivity paradox “.

Successful coupling of the offered disciplines -and their content knowledge, skills, dexiotites- with existing and future needs of the sector labor market, and thus the formation of a balanced “supply and demand balance” of specialists, emerging as central lever of the process.

The certification of professional competence of persons is an important structural change, a process that must be “protected” and fortified against reasonable and uncontrolled commercialization practices.

In conjunction with the professional profiles are the two main steps for the rational regulation of professions in reliability terms and their upgrading, preservation and employment growth, labor justice and safeguard employment rights, rising productivity, ensuring multiple knowledge, skills and mobility in the labor potential.

In this respect, the WTO, the GSEE through the GSEE Labor Institute (INE GSEE) and GSEBEE through the Institute of Small Enterprises (IME GSEBEE), consider the immediate future, through a joint steering committee, in which each player participates three members, design and implementation of interrelated and targeted actions, such as:

Ø Mapping of space by specialty, profession, discipline and sub-sector, in order:

· To take initiatives for the diagnosis of needs and investigating future trends of the sector labor market specialties demand level (new or upgrading existing) skills, knowledge, abilities, self-employment opportunities and entrepreneurial initiatives etc.

· To highlight clearly the trends and characteristics of the labor reality of individual professional disciplines and sectors,

· To design joint actions and information workers unemployed in the technical sector professions.

Ø Develop and provide information services, vocational counseling and vocational (re) orientation with the overall objective:

· Strengthening of the process of (re) integration of the unemployed in the sectoral labor market (the previous, similar or adjacent specificity) either as employees or as self-employed,

· Improve the situation, strengthening employability and enhancing the development of employees and self-employed.

Maybe not tell, but I want to point out to you, that your initiative beyond healthy entrepreneurship, characterized by the exercise I mentioned earlier. This is because you submit yourself to a limitation: denying an unbridled consumerist model, as to do it, we had spoiled, and want to prepend values ​​larger, such as support to the Greek producer, the aid worker’s Greek and the development of this blessed place.
