Safety, but also prevention, training and a database for accidents to try to curb the emergency deaths at work: 677 only in the first seven months of the year, according to the latest Inail data.
There is an agreement at Palazzo Chigi between Prime Minister Mario Draghi and the trade unions, "a fruitful meeting", it is defined, which also marks the beginning of a discussion on other open issues, from PNRR investments to reforms. "It was a very useful meeting to establish a working method", says the Prime Minister at the table with the general secretaries of CGIL, CISL and UIL, Maurizio Landini, Luigi Sbarra and Pierpaolo Bombardieri.
There are measures that can be immediately implemented, such as the system of sanctions including the suspension of activities that violate safety regulations, and an acceleration for the hiring of thousands of inspectors already planned.
On the implementation of the investments of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, on which the social partners had immediately claimed involvement, we are preparing to carry on the table leading to the definition of an ad hoc "Protocol".
THE TRADE UNIONS - “First important responses”, says Landini, with “the commitment in the coming days to further convocations to discuss the merits of the other issues”. "The judgment is positive, it was an important meeting", echoes Sbarra. "We shared the need to fight this massacre," said Bombardieri.
The Minister of Labor, Andrea Orlando, also spoke of a "useful, profitable and concrete meeting", at the end of the summit which was also attended by the Minister of Public Administration, Renato Brunetta: on the method "we will continue", he stresses.
"You cannot die while working", says the president of Confindustria, Carlo Bonomi, who strengthens the axis on the minimum wage to be defined in the contracts. The issue of the minimum wage, on the other hand, was not addressed during the meeting at Palazzo Chigi, the unions report. Instead, they raise the issue of the blocking of layoffs, which expires on October 31 also for the textile sector and for trade, services and tourism and which ask to extend together with other weeks of Covid cig, pending the reform of social safety nets. In addition to active policies, taxation and pensions, with Quota 100 expiring at the end of December.
