With up to 80,000 vacancies in its workforce, Greece is looking to utilize international agreements signed with Egypt, Syria, Bangladesh and Pakistan to employ workers in the Greek tourism sector – in addition to  employing workers in agriculture, livestock and fisheries.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis stated: “We are working to activate the agreement signed with Egypt in (agricultural production).”

He previously admitted that there is a severe shortage in some sectors of the economy, such as primary industries and the tourism sector.
