Best Domestic Staffing Agencies in Athens, Greece 2026

Why You Need a Staffing Agency

Finding household staff through informal channels (classifieds, acquaintances, social media) carries serious risks: no vetting, uninsured work, no safety net if something goes wrong. A licensed staffing agency takes on these risks for you.

Agency Selection Criteria

Licensing

Verify the agency is legally licensed as a temporary employment agency or employment office. Ask for the license number.

Vetting Process

Ask how they evaluate candidates. The proper process includes: personal interview, reference checks, certification verification, skills assessment.

Replacement Guarantee

A serious agency provides replacement guarantee: if the helper does not meet expectations, the agency finds a substitute at no additional cost.

Legal Coverage

The agency should handle or support: contract, ERGANI declaration, EFKA contributions, holiday bonuses. See our insurance guide for what exactly is covered.

Staffing Agency vs Platform

Marketplace platforms function as notice boards. Users search, contact, and handle everything themselves: no vetting, no guarantee, no insurance. A staffing agency handles the entire process.
