New Rules for Entering Banks: Security and Privacy
Published
Greece is introducing new rules for entering banks. Under the new provisions, banks may refuse entry to individuals who wear masks or face coverings, or other disguises that make it difficult to identify them.
The aim of the rules is to increase security in bank branches. When a customer enters a bank, staff must be able to recognise them. In this way, the risk of robbery and fraud is reduced, and both employees and customers are protected.
However, the new rules seek to balance security with privacy. The wearing of masks is not banned in every case, but only when identifying the person is difficult. Banks must apply the rules in a proper and fair manner, respecting citizens' rights.
These measures are expected to affect the daily lives of bank customers across the country. Customers who wish to enter a bank will need to have their face visible when identification is requested.
