The Social Protection of Unemployment in Greece: Optimal Active and Passive Policies in the European Area
2018
Overview
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether the social protection system in Greece is able to meet the needs of a family with unemployed members and how the family is being reshaped in order to overcome the difficulties of unemployment acting as a safety net. The current study has been conducted with a view to determine the effectiveness of the social protection system in Greece. This study sketches the current situation of unemployment in Greece. The financial crisis has hit the Greek active labor population with high unemployment and the Greek family uses as a support mechanism the retention of young people who suffer from long-term unemployment and extensive job search for women when they cohabitate with discouraged males. In addition, social protection in Greece is not well equipped to face the current socio-economic crisis. So, the family in Greece is called to replenish the void left by social policy programs providing assistance to the unemployed and its dependent members. As a result, it has been determined that the reconstruction of the social protection system is considered necessary taking into account the financial crisis, the demographic aging, the long-term unemployment, the household over-indebtedness and poverty. Priority groups should be the long-term unemployed in order to eliminate as much as possible the poverty and the unemployed young people with high qualifications in order to prevent migratory phenomena. Also, active inclusion programs should not be limited to the economic stimulation of the unemployed but should aim to the reintegration into the labor market and social action with training programs.
