An interstate agreement between Greece and Egypt is being implemented to legally employ up to 5,000 Egyptian seasonal farm workers in Greece due to a labor shortage in agriculture. The process is underway with initial registrations and approvals in progress. The agreement aims to address labor demands in various agricultural sectors while ensuring legal and supervised employment. Workers may stay for up to nine months, with the possibility of extending their permits. Emphasis is placed on improving living conditions for workers, although bureaucratic challenges remain. This initiative could serve as a model for future agreements and is seen as crucial for the Greek agricultural sector.
