25 May 2021 With the turnaround on the blocking of layoffs "there remains the risk that from July 1 there may be those who dismiss. wrong message ". "We will continue to ask for an extension of the blockade."



This was stated by the General Secretary of the CGIL, Maurizio Landini, on Rai Radio1, saying that "we have not seen the texts yet" and that "the game is not over" because "we do not want to be faced with thousands of layoffs: it is not the time to open further social rifts "in our country. 



The possibility for companies to use the ordinary cig from 1 July without paying the additional fees until the end of the year if they undertake not to fire is "still a useful help given to them, but so companies can choose whether to fire or not. it can be optional, but it must be a constraint ". 



"This year it would be useful to avoid the road of layoffs", remarked Landini, arguing that the game "is not over" given that "the measure will be discussed in parliament" and urging "the Government's confrontation with the social partners". 



Referring to the Recovery plan, Landini adds that "The pandemic has accelerated processes", but has also "enhanced inequalities", and now "there is a historic opportunity to be able to make many investments in a few years", and "to have a precise vision of the country we want to build and the Europe we want to live in ".
