Challenges of EFKA
After 14 months of operation, EFKA had to recognize and overcome several challenges. These could include:
-
The lack of a ready Integrated Information System
-
The lack of a global Integrated System of Information Systems.
-
The lack of a unified loaded insurance history.
-
The huge volume of physical records that vary by foundation in terms of format and location.
-
The operational phase of transition for the organic structures.
-
The complexity in the regulatory provisions over the transitional phase.
-
The need for ongoing special training of staff.
-
The difficulty in replacing experienced staff who leave or are due to retire (high level of ageing of staff).
-
The absence of staff in regional units of the mixed bodies operating at the movable level and of the PESA.
The strengths of EFKA.
-
The incorporation of all institutions into EFKA produces economies of scale which leads to protecting the sustainability of the insurance system.
-
Social security reforms constantly with the introduction of equality between all insured patrons.

-
The geographical distribution of the organisational units ensures efficient provision of services at local level for all citizens.
-

-
A single information data base is created with the ultimate aim of cosmic the operating procedures of all the institutions. The organisation lays the foundations for the time needed to award benefits.
-
The presence of the institution on the Internet through the new website with editing and renewal of its content.

Utilisation of the existing framework of cooperation with the Ministry of Labour and Social Security and Solidarity as well as other foundations in Greece and abroad.
