As he points out, “While on Friday, January 24, 2025, the GSEE sent the names of its four members to the Elevente Committee to the Labor and Social Security Minister Niki Kerameos on the next business day, in a letter to the Elevente Committee. OMED President Costas Papadimitriou informs about her unanimous decision not to participate in the work of the Consultation Committee to determine the minimum wage in 2025 ‘.
