Yes to layoffs from 1 July and the extension of the block applies only to those who use the Cig: what the new law says

by admin

ROMA. There was embarrassment at Palazzo Chigi. The control room of the majority dedicated to the implementation decrees of the governance of the Recovery Plan is convened in the room adjacent to Mario Draghi’s office. But there is also a problem that has emerged in the last few hours to solve: the rule wanted by Minister Andrea Orlando, which aimed to extend the freeze on layoffs in large industry to 28 August and which Confindustria judged a betrayal of the commitments made for weeks.

The premier had already asked the technicians of Palazzo Chigi to suggest the possible compromise, or free layoffs for the whole of 2021 to those who will avoid layoffs. Orlando, also attacked from within the government for not having agreed on the change – at least this is the version referred to – had only to give his assent to the solution, and thus avoid being disavowed. So it was: in the evening a note from Palazzo Chigi announces the change. This is not what the unions wanted, which were aiming for a dry extension of the blockade, but enough to avoid a split to the left. The three acronyms in a note complain about “the unacceptable position of Confindustria”, yet the strike against the government of broad agreements has not yet taken place.

The other issue to be resolved quickly was the definition of the command structure of the Recovery Plan, in which all parties would like to participate. Again Draghi made a synthesis that seems to hold together an increasingly unmanageable majority. It will be articulated on three levels. The first and most important is the “variable geometry” political direction, very similar to the structure of the former Cipe, the inter-ministerial committee that sits on each occasion the ministers involved in infrastructure projects. He will have to accompany the plan for six years, the premier will always be part of it, will have the tasks of guiding, coordinating and monitoring, and presenting a periodic report to Parliament. At the Ministry of the Treasury there will instead be a sort of general direction that will supervise the implementation of the plan and the financial aspects, will be the reference point of the European Commission, will provide technical assistance to Municipalities and Regions. Incidentally: Recovery facilities will be in every ministry.

All this should appear in a decree already this week, together with the rules on extraordinary staff recruitment, the definition of the government’s replacement powers, the package of administrative simplifications. On the latter part, however, the divisions in the majority are deep, and a summit will be necessary before yes.

The most contested measures by the left and by the unions are those that reintroduce the maximum reduction for tenders and that cancel the limit on subcontracting works, which had already risen last year from 30 to 40 percent of individual works. The association of builders pressures for the rule to pass and calls for an exit from “the false myth” that the use of subcontracting is a risk in itself for the protection of workers’ rights. In the majority Draghi has three dubious parties: Pd, Leu and now also the Five Stars. “With the criterion of the maximum discount – say the deputies of three parliamentary committees – we have seen the worst things: criminal infiltrations and episodes of corruption, poor quality of work, exploitation of labor, a succession of variants that promptly raised costs”. It is therefore better to refer to the latest Sblocca cantieri, providing “the most appropriate offer” or the “mediated average”, which would allow to discard the anomalous offers. On the other side of the table Draghi will have the League, which is asking for the exact opposite, and the cancellation of the procurement code in force.

The reactions in Fvg. “We need to be pragmatic, not ideological. The issue of unblocking dismissals – which must happen sooner or later, because one cannot go on indefinitely in an emergency logic and with a plastered system – must absolutely be addressed in an overall perspective, which concerns the reform of social safety nets. and active labor policies, aiming at enhancing human capital and increasing people’s employability “.

Speaking is the president of Confindustria Udine Anna Mareschi Danieli who, in a press release, spoke on the issue of the blocking of layoffs.

“We have to change our philosophy: it is difficult to imagine keeping the job where it was and how it was in a world that is not only rapidly changing but which is no longer the same as last year. And at the same time we need to protect people, training them so that they have the opportunity to reconvert their professionalism “.

The recovery is underway. In the province of Udine, according to the elaborations of the Studies Office of Confindustria Udine on data from the Labor Observatory of the Region, in the period January-March 2021 the terminations were equal to 14,356 units (much lower than in 2020, 17,246), with a positive balance of 4,429 units, higher than that recorded in the first three months of 2020, 2,078, and close to that of 2019, 4,931.

The improvement in the balance between hires and terminations is affected by the dynamics of the economic trend and of the industrial sector in particular, where the production index, also in the province of Udine, recorded a positive change of + 5.3% in the first quarter of 2021. compared to the same period last year.

In the first four months of the current year, there was also a sharp decline in the use of the redundancy fund, -8.1% in the first four months of 2021 compared to the last four months of 2020, a further sign of the rise in progress.
