State, easier dismissal for absenteeism and sick serial – The Messenger

One might rename the standard “anti slackers.” It will be easier to lay off state absentee serial, for example those who get sick every Monday morning, or those on a certain day of the year are deserting in droves with various justifications, as happened last December 31 for fire of Rome. To announce the close, it was yesterday the Minister of Public Administration Marianna Madia, on the sidelines of a conference at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. Theme “of disciplinary proceedings in the Consolidated Civil Servant”, the minister explained, “we have a specific focus on particular absences, repeated absences, absences mass”, so that, he pointed out, ‘the rules, that already exist in our legal system, standards are not theoretical but that result if the employee is wrong. ”

The reference is to the fact that about 3 million civil servants, only 220 last year were shown the door for disciplinary matters. But as the government intends to intervene? By changing the rules on dismissals for poor performance, already introduced by the reform Brunetta also in the public sector.

MECHANISM
 Today the rules allow dismissal for poor performance must essentially have two characteristics. It must first be linked to a biennial assessment of the performance of the worker the public. And then it must have some sort of subjective element. The employee that is, it must have spotted some “guilt”. In short, in addition to not have a satisfactory performance, it must have violated some law or the contract. However, if you are away every Monday, or on a day before a holiday, and has a valid certificate apparently, today is difficult to put it on the door. Absences abnormal, those repeated or mass, will instead explicitly indicated as “guilt” to be considered for dismissal.

This is just a first step. The second brick of the reform of public employment to which the Ministry of Public works, is the simplification of the procedure. When today one state commits violations, as in the case of employees of the City of San Remo you were clocking by colleagues, although there are precise rules that provide for sanctions and even dismissal, it is not clear how the whole procedure should work ie who should do what and when. The idea would be maturing, would be to make all disciplinary powers to inspectorates internal administrations.

The procedure should be triggered by the leaders (who does not suffer the penalties), and the whole ‘ disciplinary process should be completed in certain times, at most one hundred days.

ACCELERATION
 The new rules on public work are for the moment still a construction site. The reform Madia expected to implement this part of the delegation, the government has provided 18 months. The final text, therefore, there will not be until next spring.

On the other portions of the reform of public administration, however, Palazzo Chigi decided to accelerate. The decrees ready to be approved are a dozen. A good deal, announced yesterday the minister Madia, will be approved by the cabinet before Christmas. Of which texts is it? There Decree unlocks bureaucracy, it will cut by 50% the time of authorization for strategic works. The reform of public investments, which will be reduced from 8,000 to less than 3,000. The reform of local services, the code of digital with the arrival of the pin only for citizens. Besides cutting the Chambers of Commerce, the incorporation of Ranger in the body of the Carabinieri, the decree to make transparent all acts of public administration, simplification of conference services, the provision on seaports and a text on medical management.
