For Easter and Easter Monday the supermarkets in Sicily could remain closed despite there is no ordinance that provides for it. This is the risk effect of the strike of large-scale distribution workers proclaimed for April 4th and 5th by Filcams Cgil, Fisascat Cisl and Uiltucs Uil. The unions had asked the president of the Sicilian Region, Nello Musumeci, to close supermarkets on holidays, but the measure did not arrive.
Thus the trade workers will cross their arms for the entire Easter and Easter Monday work shift. The trade unions, in a note from the secretaries Monia Caiolo, Mimma Calabrò and Marianna Flauto, underline that “when certain categories of workers were declared priorities for the vaccination campaign, trade workers were not brought back who, precisely because of the ‘essential activity that they were called upon to carry out even during the lockdown, are among the most exposed to the risk of contagion ». For this reason, they recall, they had “asked President Musumeci for immediate action to order the closure of commercial activities for the upcoming holidays”.
Now the trade unions explain that “in light of the latest data relating to infections, hospitalizations and deaths for Covid 19, for greater protection of the health and safety of workers and the whole community, an intervention for the closure of commercial activities can no longer be postponed. on Sundays and holidays and the advance of the closing time from Monday to Saturday, simultaneously intensifying the controls and applying the relative sanctions “.
