In this context, with decision 9249\/2025-06-24, the implementation details of the <g id=\"gid_0\">Employee Awareness Program on Diversity and Anti-Discrimination<\/g> in the private sector were regulated. The program is part of the actions of the General Secretariat for Gender Equality and Human Rights and is implemented with the support of the Recovery and Resilience Fund.  <\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">What does the program entail?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2714 <strong>The program&#8217;s objective<\/strong> is to inform and educate private sector employees on issues related to diversity, equality, and the prevention of discrimination in the workplace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2714 The training is conducted <strong>remotely<\/strong> through specially designed 3-hour e-learning material, with thematic units such as:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Gender, racial or ethnic origin, religion, disability, age, sexual orientation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2714 After successful completion of the program and the evaluation process, participants receive a <strong>certificate of attendance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2714 The <strong>first 80,000 certified participants<\/strong> are entitled to a special purpose compensation of \u20ac100, which is <strong>non-seizable, tax-exempt, and non-offsettable<\/strong> against debts to the State, municipalities, insurance funds, or banks.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">How to participate?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Applications are submitted through the <strong>digital training platform<\/strong> of the Ministry of Social Cohesion and Family, which is accessible via gov.gr. Interested employees must have: <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">An active Tax Identification Number (TIN), an active Social Security Number (SSN), registration in the ERGANI system as employees, an IBAN bank account in their name<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Authentication is performed via TaxisNet for security and data verification.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">How is personal data protected?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The program provides for special measures for the <strong>secure processing and protection of personal data<\/strong>, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Only authorized personnel have access to the digital platform, and interoperability with state systems (e.g., ERGANI, AADE, gov.gr) is utilized to facilitate and automate the process, without further burdening employees. <\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Why is it important?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Diversity awareness is not merely a theoretical obligation, but an essential step towards promoting equal opportunities and fostering a discrimination-free work environment. The new program enables employees to be informed, acquire knowledge, and actively contribute to creating more inclusive workplaces. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"274\">We are always by your side, ready to support you with every need.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"274\"> Please do not hesitate to contact us for any clarification or support you may need.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9808,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[749,750],"tags":[780,781,782,783,784],"class_list":["post-9806","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-update","category-highlights","tag-diversity-training","tag-private-sector-employees","tag-equal-treatment","tag-anti-discrimination","tag-diversity-awareness-program"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9806"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9806\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.link.com.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
