This report uses rich administrative data from different registers in Greece to evaluate the impact of two types of active labour market policies (ALMPs): wage subsidies and training for unemployed people. The report finds a positive impact of both types of ALMPs and makes recommendations for further improving the effectiveness of Greece’s ALMPs and strengthening the capacity of the authorities to conduct ALMP impact evaluations. This report is the twelfth in a series of country reports on policies to connect people with better jobs.

The types of benefits provided by public pension systems differ across countries. The public pension system in most countries is based on an earnings-related pension scheme and can either take the form of a common scheme for all employees or of several parallel schemes in different sectors or occupational groups. For the purposes of the application of Regulation 883/04 on Coordination of Social Security Systems, determining whether a pension benefit is considered a social security benefit is crucial. This is also the case for (guaranteed) minimum pensions.
