    Draghi summons the trade unions

Share

October 14, 2021 "We are willing to go on until the green pass is removed". Stefano Puzzer, spokesman for the coordination of port workers in Trieste, told Rainews24. "It is time to stop the economy which is perhaps the only signal we can give to this state, to make it understand that there are many people in difficulty, many people who will remain without a salary, and only because they have exercised a free choice that of not getting the vaccine. Now it seems clear to me that this green passport is only a non-medical economic maneuver ".



Puzzer then said that if today "there is no news and the decree is not withdrawn tomorrow we will block the port of Trieste, both inbound and outbound". Will the other ports also participate in the protest? "The demonstration will take place tomorrow and people will see that the news that has been given, that other places disagree, tomorrow there will be evidence that this is not the case." Speaking of the confederal unions' opposition to their protest, Puzzer said: "The confederal unions are a lifetime that they are not on the side of the workers can take the positions they want, we'll see tomorrow how many people will be present at the dockers."



Meanwhile, the meeting between Prime Minister Draghi and the general secretaries of CGIL, CISL and UIL (Maurizio Landini, Luigi Sbarra and Pierpaolo Bombardieri) is taking place at Palazzo Chigi. At the center of the meeting, the government measures on health and safety in the workplace.



Guarantee Commission: unlawful strike


The blocking of the indefinite activity that the Trieste Port Workers Coordination (CLPT) intends to implement has been declared illegitimate by the Commission guaranteeing the implementation of the law on strike in essential public services: this is reported in the online edition of Il Piccolo. The state body has communicated to the Ministry of the Interior the irregularity of the strike that the CLPT has called, for the moment, from 15 to 20 October: the Commission considers the six-day strike of the Fisi and Confsafi unions out of the law, at which the CLPT has in turn joined from Trieste. The Commission itself sent a note to the Minister of the Interior expressing "particular concern" about the strikes for the "possible occurrence, in the light of the delicate social context,of serious unlawful conduct ".



Tensions in other cities


The management companies at the Port of

Palermo

have already made it known that they will not take charge of the tampons. Meetings have been held in all port cities and the protest is likely to spread to other ports of call on the peninsula. Among other things, the problem risks extending to road

haulage

, given that one in three truck drivers do not have a Green pass, a figure that rises to 80% in the case of foreign drivers.



The case exploded after the

circular from the Interior Ministry

which recommended companies "to make free molecular or rapid antigenic tests available to personnel without Green Pass". Then came the clarification that economic operators "will be able to evaluate" independently.



 Some

terminal

operators

in the port of

Genoa

will pay tampons to unvaccinated employees: this was announced by the president of Confindustria's association of Genoese terminal operators, Beppe Costa, at the end of a meeting in the prefecture. The Psa terminal in Pra 'and the Petroli port joined the initiative.



In addition to Trieste and Genoa, there are risks for

Gioia Tauro

and

Livorno

where, however, no protests have yet been announced. At the port of Gioia Tauro, waiting to know the real number of workers without Green Pass, the CGIL asked the Port Authority to be able to guarantee the tampons, but explains Salvatore Larocca, regional secretary of Filt CGIL, "obviously he replied that he did not it was economically possible. Now it is up to the companies to understand if they can evaluate to take on the tampons but, to understand if this solution is manageable, it is necessary to first understand how many workers there are without. "



In the ports of Puglia and Campania, in

Venice

and

Naples,

the high the rate of vaccinated workers should avoid inconvenience and protest actions, even in 

Civitavecchia

, where even the percentages of non-immunized are higher than elsewhere, no blocks are expected.



The president of

Federlogistica

, Luigi Merlo, attacked the government by defining "a sensational mistake" the choice to "treat the affair of the port of Trieste as a problem of public order",

effectively depriving

the Ministry of Infrastructures. "The Ministry of the Interior on the Green Pass intervenes in ports without knowing them and without having the slightest idea of ​​how they work, of what balances characterize them", he complained.



From ports, the alarm extends to land transport.

Confetra

, federation of transport and logistics associations warned that "there is a risk of blocking, paralysis of the national logistics system". "Our confederation gathers 400 thousand drivers, we estimate that 30% of them do not have the Green Pass and that therefore in a few days they will have to stop", explained the general manager Ivano Russo, "in addition there is the theme of foreigners. , many are vaccinated with Sputnik or other drugs not authorized by the EMA and AIFA and cannot obtain the QR Code ".



"A situation is

arising

in which there is a risk that on October 15-16 the transport in Italy will be blocked", confirmed the president of 

Conftrasporto

-

Confcommercio

, Paolo Uggé. "If there is no clarification, anything can happen, if foreign hauliers will be able to come to Italy without the green pass and this will instead be imposed on Italian companies we are considering inviting companies to stop the trucks".



Even

the confederal unions contest the circular of the Interior Ministry

and take the opportunity to ask for the recommendation to be extended "to all transport sectors of ancillary services and related accessories", write the general secretaries Filt Cgil, Stefano Malorgio, Fit Cisl Salvatore Pellecchia and Uiltrasporti, Claudio Tarlazzi in a letter sent to Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Infrastructures. "We have on several occasions represented at MIMS - explain the three union leaders - the peculiarities of the essential public services sector and in particular of the transport sector and the need to guarantee as much as possible a continuity of the transport service for people and goods that do not impact on the fundamental rights of user citizens ".   



Skip limit 48 hours in advance for checks


Employers, both public and private, will be able to request the verification of the green pass in advance based on organizational needs - for example for shift activities: jump from the final text of the Dpcm with the guidelines on the verification of the green pass at work , published on the Palazzo Chigi website, the forecast of the limit of 48 hours in advance within which to request the verification of the certificate.



Fedriga: "We risk enormous damage"


"My hope is that with common sense we can reach a balance" otherwise "we risk doing enormous damage, not only to the economy of the city but also to all those workers who work with the port industry, and not only in the port".

This was stated by the president of the Fvg Region and of the Conference of Regions Massimiliano Fedriga, specifying "not to intervene as a Region on the productive realities, because I have deep respect for the institutions that govern them".

Fedriga has again proposed from 15 October "less annoying and do-it-yourself nasal swabs to be carried out with responsible office supervision".
