The corporate solidarity fund is holding up the pandemic

Constant trend of members even in the year of the pandemic, despite the restrictions and thanks to the use of digital technologies for communications with members. 2020 was also a very special year for CSA, the Luxottica Workers’ Solidarity Fund set up by the workers, on the proposal of the trade unions, in 1996. A virtuous example of welfare contracted at company level, CSA is present in the Luxottica plants in Agordo. Sedico production, Sedico logistics, Sedico 3, Cencenighe, Pederobba (Treviso) and Lauriano Po (Turin). At 31 December 2020, it had 2,643 members, in line with the previous year, with their dependent family members (approximately 2,800) who can benefit from the same benefits. “The net trend of members – underlines the vice president Diego Palmeri – has remained constant even in the year of the pandemic, even if we now find ourselves having to face an early exit from the world of work of many members of the first hour, well 150 in six months, retired early benefiting from the incentive to leave the company put in place ».

«The budget closes this year with a negative of 20 thousand euros which is entirely predictable because it is linked above all to the strong demand for coverage of health care expenses – explains the president Fabrizio Campedel -. In reality, we had foreseen a closure with greater losses, but the reduced access to health facilities for ‘normal’ services linked to the lockdown and the pandemic has produced fewer requests for reimbursement. The most important activity of the CSA is in fact usually linked to the health expenditure sector ». The CSA operates in the mutuality sector, in favor of members and their fiscally dependent family members, with numerous economic interventions, such as the contribution for health costs and orthodontic appliances, maternity allowance, contributions for university expenses, for the purchase of aids for disability, for funeral expenses and important support, of an economic nature but not only, for cases of particular economic difficulties. In 2020, it provided 35,000 euros for school expenses, 32,700 euros in maternity allowances, 49,385 euros for orthodontic appliances, 26,300 euros for university expenses, as well as having entered into numerous agreements with medical, dental, polyclinics, optics and health offices.
