The unions slam the door. Nothing to be done on the 102 quota. The reform put in place by the Draghi government on pensions does not go down well in the Cgil, Cisl and Uil, and in rejecting it to the sender they immediately ask the executive to open the discussion. Del retso, they reason at Cisl, “In the face of the discussions we have had in recent months with the Minister of Labor, with various parliamentary groups and finally with the Labor Commission of the Chamber to illustrate the contents of the unitary platform on social security and the proposals on flexibility, we would have expected greater attention from the government in dealing with the delicate issue of pensions ”. This is what the CISL underlines in a note. “We are really disconcerted to read in the press, proposals such as quota 102 or, even today, quota 104 and the abolition of the female option while it continues to be unclear what happened to the revaluation of pensions outstanding. For the CISL these are unacceptable hypotheses in terms of substance and method. In a country heavily affected by the economic crisis aggravated by the pandemic, where the tensions that run through important sections of society are evident, the impact that the issue of pensions can generate for thousands of male and female workers cannot be underestimated. This is why we reiterate the request for an urgent meeting with the Government to address the pension issue as a whole ». And even the CGIL led by Maurizio Landinaturalmante is done under. «The Quota 102 and 104 proposal, if confirmed by the Government, would constitute a real joke for the workers. With those constraints, only a few thousand people will be able to access retirement in the next few years ”. This is what the confederal secretary of the CGIL Roberto Ghiselli declares. ” Since taking office, the Government has always ignored the issue of pensions – says the union leader – and now it seems to be preparing for a patched-up adjustment in view of the expiry of Quota 100, while the priority is to have a real reform, which goes beyond the limits of Quota 100, which gives stability to the system, guarantees effective flexibility in exit, addresses the issue of women, burdensome, unemployed and young people, and the growth in the value of existing pensions “. «Let’s go back to asking the Executive to immediately open a real confrontation with the union and to give adequate responses to the requests contained in the unitary platform. Otherwise – concludes Ghiselli – we will not be idle ».
The tension, therefore, remains high not only among the executive forces, such as on the super bonus, but also on other fronts. Minister Andrea Orlando throws water on the fire, clarifies that “the distortions that characterized the 100 quota had to be eliminated”. And for now, however, “we will not return to the Fornero meeting”, certainly, underlines the parliamentarian Carla Cantone, rapporteur of the bill on social security in the Labor Committee in the Chamber, “it is essential that the executive and the social partners reach an understanding and that this agreement allows to find a just solution ».
