labor reform
Milan , December 27, 2014 – 19:37
E ‘open clash in the government on the Jobs Act and its applicability to public servants . According to the Minister of Labour, Giuliano Poletti, the new rules do not apply to workers in the public sector, “because the whole discussion on the enabling law was made on private employment and therefore does not apply to public employment.” Confirming what was already said by the Minister of Public Administration, Marianna Madia, Poletti adds: “If you want to discuss the public work in Parliament there is an enabling law on Public Administration.” A position that belies the claim of the labor lawyer Pietro Ichino (Sc), who helped draft the text: according Ichino, the absence of an explicit reference to the exclusion of state results in their involvement. Exclaims the MEF and deputy undersecretary of Sc Enrico Zanetti: “I find this quite frankly ba ffling antics of some ministers in denying the applicability of the Jobs Act to public employment.” He explains: “How can you not understand that certain distinctions are not just reassurance for the public use, but unfair discrimination for employees in the private sector?”. Critic well Ncd Senator Roberto Formigoni, who speaks of “reformism Renzi tiny little”: “And so the Jobs Act does not apply to civil servants, the sector that needed it most.”
The crux of social safety nets
What the validity or otherwise of the Jobs Act for public employees was only one of the nodes remained open after the approval of the decrees implementation of the labor reform in the Council of Ministers of 24 December scorso.La first game is played on the new social safety net designed to absorb progressively earlier Aspi and mini-Aspi and retire the cig notwithstanding. The implementing decree was in fact approved ‘unless arrangements’, ie in the absence of the SIAE stamp final State Accounting and identifying some of the shell. At the moment the only amount written down on paper is inserted in the law of stability that the new shock absorbers allocates 2.2 billion per year in 2015 and 2016 and EUR 2 billion for the years to follow as of 2017. The resources may But not enough: in 2013, for example, – years, it is true, of deep crisis, not necessarily intended to replicate – according to data from INPS, Aspi and mini-A spi well have cost 7.5 billion euro. Even without getting to those figures, however, the problem is resources, so much so that during the examination of the stability law minorities of the Democratic Party had requested additional appropriations.
The issue of collective redundancies
Then there is the issue of collective redundancies. Unexpectedly, the decree provides that the rules on individual dismissals also apply to those of at least five workers. A rule that perhaps served to appease the most belligerent within the majority but who sent furious unions. Not only the CGIL, ready for new strikes and judicial appeals against the whole package, but also the far more cautious CISL. Just the former trade unionist Cesare Damiano promises his commitment, also inviting to appreciate what has been achieved so far. Surely, as chairman of the Labour Commission of the Chamber, will fight to restore the rule only to individual dismissals, but in the meantime, he says, the important thing is to be able to defuse some of the “dangers” as the so-called “opting out” strongly desired by Ncd, which would allow the employer to “circumvent” the impossibility of dismissal considered illegitimate by paying a mega compensation. Whatever the opinion that the parliamentary committees will send to the government, the executive will however not be obliged to take them into account, given that the powers of attorney signs parliamentarians are not binding.
