Abstract: Abstract Having described the structure of the Greek tax system, and the persistence of this structure during the crisis in Chap. 12 , we turn in this chapter to examine the effect of the changes in the tax wedge on private sector salaried labor, especially during the most recent crisis years. Taking advantage of data that allows us to track full-time employment in both the lower end of the job market and the upper income echelons, we can investigate the impact of tax policy changes in different segments of the job market. In addition, the available data allows us to treat separately part-time employment. This analysis is, in addition, performed for various firm sizes, in order to gain better insights regarding the impact of both the implemented tax policies and the evolution of the macroeconomic environment that affected the private sector.
