GREECE | The Greek Ombudsman publishes a special report on harassment and sexual harassment at work

The report published by the Greek Ombudsman is a brief record of the findings from the cases handled by the Authority in the period 2011-2022 concerning harassment and sexual harassment in employment and at work.

It offers the reader a broad overview of the institutional framework, on the national, European and international level, for the prevention and investigation of harassment and sexual harassment, as well as the imposition of effective, proportionate and dissuasive sanctions. Especially in the Greek context, the impact of Law 4808/2021 is expected to be catalytic, as it introduces a coherent legal framework with an extended scope of protection for dealing with harassment, at least in the private sector.

The report, at the same time, standardises the characteristics of the physiognomy of complainants and respondents, highlights similarities and differences in incidents of harassment and sexual harassment in the private and public sectors, summarises the main problems in the investigation of incidents and suggests measures and tools for a more effective response to such incidents.
