The paper examines a series of transformations that took part in the Greek industrial relations system and assess the changes in the field of social partnership. Furthermore, it analyses the implications that institutional amendments, introduced since 2012, have promoted for Greek labour legislation and the role of social partners.

Moreover, it evaluates the impact of EC-ECB-IMF Programmes on the reshape of the Greek industrial relations context towards highly decentralized collective bargaining, and the abandonment of social dialogue as a means to contribute the economic and social policy fundamental choices.
