" Work today defines the human being and his or her role in society , but if work were separated from the individual, we must ask ourselves what would happen to the worker and the role of people in society." This is the starting point of the first regional congress of the UilFpc, entitled "The Human Factor," which focuses on the challenge of artificial intelligence and new rights.

The new union, born from the merger between Uilcom and Uil Poste, is looking to a transformation "faster than any other in history," as Secretary Tonino Ortega emphasizes. A change that risks calling into question the very role of individuals in the workplace.

Artificial intelligence, he explained, is not neutral: "It has no ethics or feelings," he warned, pointing to the need for clear rules. During the congress, the UIL launched several proposals for coexisting with and governing AI: from controlling algorithms in hiring to protecting time and quality of life.

Also present at the conference were Regional Councillor for Labour Desirèe Alma Manca and several figures from the island's economy, including Lia Serreli, General Manager of the Unione Sarda group, Paolo Faieta, Head of Human Capital and Institutional & External Affairs at Tiscali, and Andrea Porcu, Deputy Director of Confindustria Sardegna Meridionale.

The goal, Ortega concludes, is one: "If the machine produces more, man must work and live better."
