Everyone back in the streets to relaunch the Tossilo dispute, which has run aground in the quicksand of regional politics. The 25 workers of Tossilo Spa, who since January 1st risk being left without salary protection, are mobilizing, with the Cgil, to urge local and regional institutions to resolve the long-standing Tossilo dispute, where the new waste-to-energy plant, ready for over three years now, cannot be made to take off.
Everything remains inexorably at a standstill, despite the promises that the situation would return to normal within this year. While on the one hand the Cgil brings workers to the streets, on the other the Cisl attacks and urges the intervention of the Regional Council. "On the dispute that also concerns the future of 25 workers and their families we must take note of the total inertia of the Region and this is not acceptable a few weeks after the cessation of subsidies". This is what the two leaders of the Cisl, Claudia Camedda and Gianluca Langiu, write. "At the beginning of October - the unionists write - we asked for a meeting with the councilors of industry, labor and the environment, so as to be able to organically address all aspects related to the Tossilo spa dispute".
The only one who responded to the request from the CISL was the Councilor for Labor, who called the parties for November 13, a meeting that was canceled the day before and postponed to a date to be determined. "It is not a sign of attention for the workers, nor for a territory that is suffering greatly from employment - it is written in the press release - we are once again launching an appeal to the Region, so that it convenes all the interested parties as soon as possible and finds, primarily, a solution for the families and workers who have been waiting, for too long, for clear and definitive answers. As far as we are concerned - the two unionists comment - the only viable solution must pass through the start-up of the plant. The payment of wages was and must be a stopgap solution, but that infrastructure cannot be held hostage by ideologies that have nothing to do with the future of the workers".
