Back to newsGreek public sector engineers are set to strike from June 22 to June 30, 2026. The action involves civil engineers employed by the state, who are mobilizing over workplace and professional grievances. While the strike primarily affects public administration and state-run construction or infrastructure projects, tourists should be aware that any permits, inspections, or public works oversight during this period may face delays. Day-to-day tourist activities, private businesses, beaches, and attractions are not expected to be directly impacted. If you have dealings with local government offices or are involved in property-related matters during your stay, expect slower processing times. The strike is scheduled to last through the end of June.
