I feel like this will only lead to more people not declaring their income.

Ironically, the move is supposed to deter people from doing that. The article doesn't go into details about how it will be achieved. It'd be nice to see how the Greek public reacts.

Spot on. A lot of people have unregistered jobs. This kind of laws encourage a hard split between clear and shadow economy.
