The Air Italy dispute has now reached its final stages.
Ownership of the airline does not change your mind. The liquidators, even in the last meeting, confirmed the position expressed in recent months: they do not intend to ask for an extension of the layoffs expiring on 31 December for the 1,322 employees hired between Olbia and Malpensa.
The collective dismissal letters are ready (they should be sent before Christmas) but they are on standby.
Meanwhile, the government has asked for more time to organize a parachute for workers, who would otherwise be left without any form of social safety net.
"We are dealing with an extremely difficult and complex situation", declared the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility Teresa Bellanova, confirming that it is necessary to verify the hypothesis of a possible regulation in the maneuver to ensure the Cig for 2022.
"We have until December 31 and we need to finalize the alternatives we have in mind", said the deputy minister of Mise Alessandra Todde.
The Sardinia Region also intervened to defend the position of the workers through the mouth of the vice president of the council and labor councilor Alessandra Zedda : "We cannot accept that the story of 1.322 workers of Air Italy closes in a shameful and unworthy way".
The unions are attacking politics, which has dealt with the dispute when now there seems to be nothing more to be done. "The interest of the ministries is belated but the fact that there is another meeting at the Ministry of Labor before the end of the year and that in the meantime the letters will not be sent, still leaves some very small gap", said Arnaldo Boeddu ( Filt Cgil Sardinia).
