Bringing about the return of the Greeks abroad “is not only an economic need but a social and moral duty,” Labour and Social Security Minister Domna Michailidou said in her speech at the annual event organized by BrainReGain-Hellenism In Action, ANA reports.
Greece should “embrace” its children, who left the country seeking job opportunities, and “offer them a friendly and supportive environment so they may return and contribute to their country,” she said at the event, held on Tuesday and referred to her own experience living and working abroad for 12 years.
“It is extremely important to ‘send a message’ to our compatriots that live abroad that our economy is doing well, that salaries are rising, and that, if they want to found a business in Greece, they will be discouraged by the bureaucracy.”
The minister focused on three pillars that are key for the repatriation of ‘talent’ to the country. “Coming back to Greece means salary, tax incentives, allowances, and tax indicators. It means services for the harmonization of family with professional life, whether for children or for the elderly. It means a friendly and inclusive environment for all”.
