ROMA (ITALPRESS) – Cgil, Cisl and Uil have signed with Confindustria, Confcommercio, Confesercenti, Confapi, Confartigianato, Cna, Casartigiani, Claai, Confcooperative, Legacoop, Agci, Confetra and Confservizi, the pretext for the new inter-confederal agreement that updates the rules on wages, contracts, participation and representation.
BOMBARDIERI “ACCORDO STORICO, STOP A CONTRATTI PIRATA”
“After more than a year of negotiations and a final no stop of eighteen hours, this night, Uil, Cisl, Cgil and 13 employers’ associations, have finally signed the hypothesis of framework agreement on representation, contractual arrangements, wages and contents of collective bargaining.” The Secretary General of the Uil, PierPaolo Bombardieri, who led the delegation of his Organization, composed of the confederal secretaries Vera Buonomo and Ivana Veronese, and the Confederal Secretary, Santo Biondo, on the occasion of the confrontation held at the national headquarters of the Confindustria. “This night, we signed a historical understanding, after one of the longest and most difficult negotiations in trade union history, destined to revolutionize the system of industrial relations: the foundations were laid to generate wage growth and to dismantle pirate contracts. It has been defined, in fact – Bombardieri continued – a system of measurement of the representation and representation, both of the employers’ associations and of the unions. In particular, it is expected that we can vote in all places of work for the creation of the Rsu, even if to ask it is at least 30%+1 of workers and workers”.
“With regard to the wage part – said Bombardieri – the contents of the minimum economic treatment, the Tem, and the overall economic treatment, the Tec were defined. In particular, wage adjustment was established on the basis of a contract, subject to periodic verification, with annual or biennial rate. For the welfare system, provided for by national collective labour contracts, important innovations emerge as the employer’s performance must be universal, exigible and economically quantifiable. Chapters on health and safety, training and participation complete the agreement. In the coming weeks – said Bombardieri – the Uil will convene the regional confederal councils, to submit this agreement to the vote of all its management group. Finally, we will ask the Government to withdraw the agreement. This would be the precondition for the implementation, at a distance of eighty years, of Article 39 of the Constitution, on the certification of representation and public recognition of the contractual role of the Trade Union. An epochal fact – concluded Bombardieri – that will generate social justice, growth and economic efficiency”.
FUMAROLA “UN ATTO DI RESPONSABILITÀ VERSO IL PAESE”
“It is a foundational agreement, in the wake of the great interconfederal agreements that have marked republican history,” says Cisl Daniela Fumarola. “The unions and enterprises have written it independently, after a long and sometimes harsh confrontation between different worlds. While Italy is divided into everything, work and enterprise have given serious and exigible rules. It is an act of responsibility towards the country,” adds Fumarola. “The first result is in the payroll. The contracts are renewed at the expiry: the platforms arrive six months earlier, the answer within a month, and the negotiation opens immediately. If prices run more than expected, the difference is recovered with periodic checks and remains acquired. When late renewal takes mandatory protection related to inflation recovery. It is not indexing, it is bargaining: it will not turn back to anyone”, says number one Cisl
“The national contract remains the pin and decentralized bargaining arrives in territories and districts, up to smaller businesses. Participation, which entered the order with the popular initiative law commissioned by Cisl, becomes a shared rule among the parties, from the prior comparison on artificial intelligence to the paritetic commissions. Training is a universal right, which follows the person when changing company or profession. In the field of health and safety, collective bargaining is recognized as a privileged tool for prevention also through equality and training, strongly contrasting all forms of pirate bilaterality,” Fumarola said. “To measure representation, with members and votes for trade unions and workers covered by contracts for enterprises, allows to identify in each sector the reference contract, parameter of the right wage, and to beat pirate contracts that lower pay and rights. A principle dear to Cisl is affirmed: the rules of work are for the social partners, sheltered from the change of majority,” Cisl explains.
“Partecipation and decentralized bargaining, always in the identity of Cisl, become a common heritage of industrial relations, thanks also to the delegates and delegates who carry them every day in the workplace. Now it is up to all of us to make the new rules live, starting from contracts that have expired for too long. To politics we ask to complete the action of the parties with a great social pact, of which this understanding is the first chapter. It is the beginning of a growth path based on bargaining and participation, to be done together,” Fumarola concludes.
