The nationwide federation of public hospital employees (POEDIN) is carrying out a demonstration outside the General Accounting Office in the city center of Athens.

According to POEDIN, the pension system reform that is being designed by the government will result in cuts of over 30%.

Furthermore, the federation is demanding that the government takes actions to address the serious staffing and funding issues faced by many hospitals.

A meeting with the Alternate Minister of Finance Giorgos Houliarakis has been arranged for Friday, following a recent demonstration.
