Workers at the EFKA social security offices in Eastern Crete will participate in a nationwide 24-hour strike on Tuesday, June 17, 2026. The strike has been called by POSE-EFKA, the union representing social security employees across Greece. The Eastern Crete branch will hold a press conference on Monday, June 16, ahead of the action. Tourists are unlikely to be directly affected, as EFKA offices handle social insurance matters rather than visitor services. However, if you have any pending administrative matters requiring Greek social security offices, plan to visit before June 17 or wait until June 18. Public transport, ports, and tourist sites are not expected to be impacted by this specific strike action.
