Each year approximately 2 million people work illegally “completely unknown to the authorities.” And they produce, says an analysis provided by the ANSA Foundation studies of Consultants on the inspection of the Ministry of Labour-Inps-Inail of 2014 and the first 6 months 2015, an underground economy of “41 billion and 837 million “and” an evasion of 25 billion in taxes and contributions. “

The phenomenon of undeclared work, show labor consultants, it continues to be revealing, in our country. During 2014, 221,476 companies were inspected by the Ministry of Labour, INPS and INAIL, by lifting the veil of “77,387 reports not reported, then managed ‘black’, a percentage of 34.94%.” In the first half of this year, however, “it went a bit ‘better, but about 106 849″ companies sieve were identified approximately 31,394 occupied entirely’ black ‘,’ that is, 29.38%. ” In Italy there are about 6 million businesses registered with the Chamber of Commerce, as well as one million production companies not listed; bearing in mind that in 30% of the companies controlled is undeclared work, the national estimate is more than 2 million people (2,100,000) each year in paid completely unknown to the authorities.

The estimate of 25 billion in lost revenue for the treasury, adding professionals, derived from calculations on the average individual pay for 241 days per year of service paid leave (on INPS) which is equal to 86 , 80 Euros, considering the absence of social security contributions (41 billion), to social security payments (14.6 billion, providing a rate of 35%, counted on average between classes of contribution), as well as missed jetsam tax (9 , 3 billion, based on an average rate of 24.5%, net of deductions) and Inail insurance (1.2 billion).

It was the Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, in his enews 25 July, indicating the fight against tax evasion as a means to lower taxes: “In Italy we pay too much tax. It is foolish to continue like this, “he wrote. And he added: “While we fight evasion. If we all pay, we pay less. In the first year of government the fight against tax evasion has resulted in a more flattering 7% of revenue over the previous year. If the reforms will go ahead – and I believe – we manage to lower the debt, unlock yards, lower taxes. The design is clear, it has to make it happen! And the Democratic Party will never be the party of taxes. ”

A more effective fight against tax evasion has been shown in recent days by the government among the possible sources of coverage of the operation by 25 billion contained in the future Law of Stability. “The resources come from different sources depending on which is the expense you want to do. If you want to reduce taxes, a portion of the shell – said the Deputy Minister of Economy Enrico Morando – will come from the spending review. A fee can be, in the case of reducing the tax burden and not to other financial charges, even by a better outcome in the fight against tax evasion. “
