corporate crises, 500 EUR per month for a year – The Republic

Rome – Cash extraordinary prolonged integration of twelve months. A new subsidy of 500 Euros per month for a year to those left without shock absorbers. And a relocation Operational Plan (ROP) or the conciliatory offer. Three roads to help 35-40 thousand workers of the nine areas of complex industrial crises – from Piombino to Termini Imerese, from Livorno to Gela, from Taranto to Trieste – when the end of December will expire social safety nets. And the risk of becoming esodati – without subsidies or work and away from the guest house – will become concrete, seeing that since January 1 disappear is the mobility allowance that the layoffs notwithstanding, and there’s more stringent stakes for the extraordinary layoff, as well as provided by the jobs Act.

extended subsidies. Unions and government (there was the labor minister Giuliano Poletti) met today to complete form to the document signed on September 1 by Confindustria and CGIL , CISL and UIL. Two basic criteria buffer solution from 1 January, parallel and simultaneous operational intervention to speed up relocation or compensation to workers who give up. In the first case, the government is preparing to change the legislative decree 148 of 2015, which reformed the social security benefits in the implementation of the Jobs Act. So to allow in only these areas of crisis so-called complex, to extend by one year in Cigs due December 31. Regions and the Ministry of Economic Development may also be made for a further extension (the maximum of a further twelve months), if the company has a business plan and a relocation plan. For workers who are finishing instead Aspi, Naspi or mobility identifies a similar tool all’Asdi, unemployment allowance, from 500 euro per month for a year, without financial constraints (ISEE or other). The plan will cost around 235 million (of which 150 million for the subsidy of 500 Euros and 85 for the extension of the extraordinary Cig). The Jobs Act amending decree should arrive in the council of ministers by September 15 to 16, assured the Minister Poletti.

Training and active policies. In parallel – and in collaboration with the Regions (to sustain “at least 20% of the figure that we have put us on the basis of a policy active, “he explained Poletti) and Anpal, the new national agency for active policies led by Maurizio Del Conte – will be activated training courses for workers and looking for a new place, with the idea to experience precisely from these nine crisis areas the resettlement allowance which will start later this year. The idea is that of promoting the maximum return to an occupation for the majority of workers in a short time, without waiting for the expiration of the shock absorbers. Alternatively, the employee may give up the attempt to accept an offer relocation and conciliatory, that is, compensation equal to one month’s salary for each year of work. The same companies will be required to present its own plan that includes the return of workers. This second part, however, was not discussed in today’s meeting. And the theme will be taken up in subsequent comparisons that involve Confindustria.

Season. Solution in half for seasonal workers recurring tourism and spas. The Jobs Act has halved their unemployment benefits. So this year, after six months of work, prepare to cash in just three months Naspi and you’re not. In Summit Poletti today assured that this year will take four months instead of three (cost 135 million). The total resources provided today by the government – between crisis areas and seasonal – are therefore 375 million.

Poverty. “Our goal for 2017 on poverty is to have a available 1.5 billion Euros with which to be able to cover the entire audience of families with children in need, “he added Poletti, revealing the intention of the government more than double the effort this year (600 million) .

critical CGIL. “partial interventions, not enough, the only response to emergencies.” So the confederal secretary of Cgil, Serena Sorrentino, said the measures on social security benefits emerged from the Ministry of Labour. “We were wondering deeper changes on cushions. And even the intervention on Naspi is wrong, it is just one more month and exclusively protect seasonal workers in the sectors of tourism and spas.” Even on voucher fixes are not enough: “We wanted the abolition, but the minister has told us that there will be limited to traceability.”

Uil, first step. “The government’s plan is just an aspirin, a buffer for emergency but it is a first step in an overall intervention,” opens the confederal secretary of Uil, Guglielmo Loy. “The fever in the territories is still high and the government’s plan only serves to lower it but does not cure the disease. It ‘a tampon and now serves a more in-depth measure that safeguards the workers outside of crisis areas although we appreciate that the government has launched a debate on the Jobs act, and that recognizes the need to amend the reform of the

Cisl, good news. ” a positive response, a beautiful news”. So the confederal secretary of Cisl, Gigi Petteni. “When there are resources for workers is always a positive response. 500 euro more for those who have lost everything is always a sign more,” he says again reiterated that “being able to say to those who have lost almost everything that will have resources until at least end of 2017, for a social contract, which is positive and good news. “
