“As they said the mothers, too much TV is bad. Landini has become a prisoner of the television character “. With these words, Mark Bentivogli , secretary general Fim Cisl, replica lunges of his counterpart of Fiom, which was passed to the attack against the new pay system announced by CEO of Fca, Sergio Marchionne . In the same vein the intervention of Rocco Palombella , secretary general Uilm Uil: “But what does he know if it’s five years since I negotiate? He participates in the television talk shows, we measure ourselves with the crisis in the world of work. Who defended the contract we are. ” The unions have branded as “ antics ” allegations of Landini, according to which the minutes of Understanding between Lingotto, Fim and Uil “erases the role of the union by reducing it to a spectator notary” and “pretends participation of workers to the company on whose destinies rather have no chance of speech. “

When accused of having” killed bargaining “, Palombella responds:” Today we will sign the contract renewal with specific Fca and CNH as concerns the economic part . But we will do more: we aim to renew, as you know, even the Ccnl metalworkers. Other than the end of the contracts. ” “If every year renew the contract as we did in Fiat, – adds Ferdinand Uliano , national secretary of Fim – the contract you do it live, you do not die.”

Landini also accused Fim and Uilm legitimize companies that want out of the national contract. “If someone has driven Fiat by the national contract, what is Landini – responds Uliano – It opened a legal dispute on the exceptions identified in the contract. The only way to defend an investment threatened by legal action was out of the context of Confindustria “.

But beyond the clash on the role of trade unions and collective bargaining, the thrust of the Fiom leaders concerned on substantive issues within the minutes of the meeting between the Lingotto and the trade unions. “In today’s workers Fca and CNH have a lower base pay to workers covered by the contract Federmeccanica – accused Landini – This gap will not be bridged and the base salary set in 2011 by the specific contract Fiat will be increased. “

On this point, the words of the leader Fiom found opposition from colleagues. “To say that today is excluded the possibility of increases in base pay is a joke – replica Uliano – Today we open the negotiations, we will bring the wages of workers from 7 thousand to 10 thousand euro more. In the coming days we will define also how much of this wage share will end in base pay. ” And on the comparison on the base pay between contracts and Federmeccanica Fca, the union admits that there is, for certain professional groups, a differential disadvantageous for the workers of the Lingotto. “But this is an increase that we got, in the contract Federmeccanica, without the signature of the Fiom, which contested that understanding. And also, now Federmeccanica is demanding the return of that increase, which was linked to an estimated increase in inflation, which now instead stood around 0%. “
