Paul Geroulanos distanced himself from Paul Geroulanos‘s proposal for a four-day working day.
“We can try,… no party can impose anything,” he said in statements to SKAI, essentially revealing that Nikos Androulakis’ proposal is another firework, since no serious arguments accompany it.
“We are opening a debate. We need to look at these things that have been tried in other countries. Experts should tell us the pros and cons, or else a party cannot say it will impose something, but you can say you will try something,” he said specifically.
He reiterated several times that the proposal is about opening a debate and “various facts will be examined.”
On the flip side, of course, the government has been clear in its stance against the Androulakis proposal, with Labor Minister Niki Kerameos accusing the PASOK president of irresponsible populism that threatens the viability of small and medium-sized enterprises and the economy.
Remember that yesterday, Wednesday, Nikos Androulakis, in a post on social media, shared promises of 32 or 35 hours of work without a pay cut, which – as Niki Kerameos commented – lacks economic realism and is a dangerous approach that could lead to mass lockouts and job losses.
