The Inspection Service of the Ministry of Labour and Social Insurance, in the context of the effort to combat undeclared work and the control of compliance with basic Labour Laws, informs that during May 2022, targeted inspections will be carried out on a nationwide basis in recreation centres / cafes.
The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness among all those involved in these economic activities regarding the consequences of undeclared work and non-compliance with the provisions of the relevant Legislation. At the same time, checks will be carried out regarding the observance of basic terms of employment (salary, working hours, weekly off, etc.).
It is noted that according to the provisions of the relevant Legislation, in case of detection of an undeclared person in the Social Insurance Fund, an administrative fine of €500 is issued multiplied by 7 months, unless it is proved by the employer that the period of violation was shorter. If it is established that the infringement period was longer, the fine shall be multiplied by the actual months.
It is reminded that anonymous/branded complaints/information in relation to undeclared work or violation of the terms of employment are accepted at the Pancyprian hotline 77778577.
