All Terni took to the streets to defend the site of the steelworks special “cradle” of the Italian steel industry, today questioned the business plan of ThyssenKrupp, which provides savings for 100 million through a downsizing plan (the mobility procedure for 537 people has already been launched by the company in recent days, immediately after the failure of the mediation proposal by the government).

Yesterday, thousands of people (13 thousand according to the police), after the events and tensions of recent days, marched peacefully through the streets of the city, until the rally in the square of the three national secretaries of CISL, UIL and the CGIL, Giuseppe Farina, Luigi Angeletti and Susanna Camusso. The latter, at the conclusion of the event, has launched a proposal for a national strike in the steel industry, given that “there is an industrial policy for a country if there is a policy of the steel industry.”

The story of Ast, according to many observers, is emblematic of their own to represent this distance. The site is back steel ternano the property of Germans in recent months, after a limbo that lasted more than a year, during which the Finnish Outokumpu, who had bought the business from Thyssen as part of Inoxum, but who had been forced antitrust Community rimetterele on the market, have failed to find a win-win (the only offer in the field was that of the roped-ArcelorMittal Marcegaglia-Arvedi) to sell it. Avoided bankruptcy Inoxum transaction, the stated goal by the Germans, from the outset, has been looking for a recovery efficiency to try again, later, the market street. After an initial unilateral initiative, fielded last August (and zero mobility of supplementary contracts), the property has agreed to take a step back and deal with the unions and the government. But after a month of discussion, the synthesis of Palazzo Chigi was rejected by the stakeholders, and Ast (the CEO is Lucia Morselli) has returned to the mobility procedure.

Yesterday, the secretary of the FIM, Giuseppe Farina, hard against the company (“arrogant, rigid and angular counterpart”) has pointed the finger at the government. “He must do more – he said – can not only mediate but must act on Thyssen and the German government.” Luigi Angeletti, of Uil, has instead “unacceptable loss of production and prune work. You can not – he said – that only in Italian corporations dictate to the government what it must do. ” Susanna Camusso (both she and Angeletti at the time of taking the floor were briefly contested) has instead asked “why the Government does not seek to make Ast solidarity contracts. It would be an instrument to support an expansion phase of the business plan, while the idea seems to prevail instead of the gradual dismantling of the steel. “

The criticisms of the trade union action of the Government are followed by the last week, after the failure of the mediation proposal at the table of Mise. Palazzo Chigi, however, rejects the allegations and the desire to want to go back to deal with (in parallel to the table turned to the Ministry of Labour as part of the mobility procedure). Yesterday, the Secretary for Development Claudio De Vincenti has assured that “the company will meet and trade unions to promote the resumption of confrontation,” asking “sense of responsibility” is from the company that part of workers and trade unions. The representatives of the workers are demanding a greater pressure on Germany (at the time of the dispute Berco Copparo, the same property and the same CEO of the Ast, Letta, the Government had written to the German ambassador in Italy), but intend to start from the Palazzo Chigi points of the document mediation last week: maintenance of the second furnace, maintaining the levels of production of the last three years, the transfer of the production line in Turin, investments in process innovation and product for 110 million euro in three years, development the commercial network of ThyssenKrupp Ast.
