Tamponi gratis a Trieste
“We have decided – explains Franco Mariani, at the helm of Alpt, who manages on-demand work on the Julian docks – to reimburse the swabs to all unvaccinated workers, who can then use it for free. We can do it because we are doing very well the first nine months of 2021, after the hard previous year, indicate an increase in the days worked for Alpt of 45%, with monthly peaks of over 4,500 start-ups (i.e. call-days, ed). This is thanks to the fact that all the workers have made great efforts to meet the needs of the port, also undergoing double shifts ».
«It would be a shame, at this point – continues Mariani – to risk problems and frustrate what has been done so far. It felt right to pay the tampons also because q his workers never stopped being present on the platform, even when there were still no vaccines and the number of deaths was high ».
The port president ready to resign
Furthermore, the position taken by the president of the Port System Authority of Treiste and Monfalcone is firm, Zeno D’Agostino that threatens resignation. «Friday 15 – he says – I will go to work as every day in my office and if they tell me that, instead of going on a one-day strike, they intend to block the port indefinitely, I will leave the job. I have a port that has to work: if this does not happen the president leaves ».
